Articles usually end with a new releases list, but I’m experimenting with them as a feature this week. I’ve also included a sentence or two that reflects how each release makes me feel, which better serves the artist and music lovers than saying something is “good” or “bad” as a review. Leave a comment with your thoughts on the new format and/or the music — would love to hear them.
Please invite a friend to follow Herizon Music and discover new talent and chat about the issues that affect female music makers and their fans.

“The Arena” by Lily Enos, New Jersey
single, electronica disco
Wait for the crescendo, which comes later in the song than expected. It’s 100% worth it! Lily Enos’s music is captivating, I’m excited to see her on stage.
“The Little Things” by Wendy Colonna, Texas
single, soulful americana
Wendy Colonna released this song for Mother’s Day for obvious reasons. It will tug at your heartstrings and inspire you to call a mother figure (or child figure) you love.
“BSG” by RiFFiNDoTs (Britta Pejic), Maine
single, psychedelic pop
Grab your frisbee and jean jacket and listen to this groovy vibe on your way to the weekend pool party. (What exactly is a riffindot? Do we pop one before Britta Pejic’s show?)
Canciónes Sobre La Vida y La Muerte by Leti Garza, Texas
album, latin folk
Leti Garza’s collection of English and Spanish Songs About Life & Death is a rich tapestry of heritage that takes you on a romantic trip south of the border.
“Hold The World Away” by Kris Schultz, Texas
single, acoustic americana
Kris Schultz has a way of touching your soul with her minimalism. This video was shot at the Austin Kite Festival for a live series called “Songs In Places.”
