She also works as a record producer, and her compositions are highly acclaimed worldwide.

Among her works, the one I recommend for November is Sweetest November.

While she excels in indie rock and indie pop, this piece carries a vibe closer to 2000s US country.

The melody is dreamy, but the performance and vocals are catchy, so I think many listeners will enjoy it.

If you do, you’ll find, almost miraculously, that you can regain control of yourself.”
