"Our new single, 'Can,' feels like a big warm hug—so raw and real. The song is about me going on this imaginary first date, and I’m telling this person everything about myself. I’m trying to make space for connection, and I’m telling them that sometimes I can’t break through the wall I’ve built. But I try," says Jorina Stamm, the voice of the indie-something-something collective Soft Loft.
If music could convey the feeling of deep trust and speak to a wholehearted 'I got you'—this song would be it! It’s a soft, summery simmer of a ditty that finds the band deep-vibing—flowing with the ease of a mountain brook tumbling over round stones. When the instrumental bits hit, they feel like prismatic splashes, giving the tune a mild psychedelic bend. And then there are the vocals with their odd pocket and urgency, and you can almost see the entire arrangement wrapping itself around them the way arms wrap around somebody who needs to be held. A friendly reminder: Soft Loft stands for a space where the full spectrum of you will always be welcomed.

Thanks these lovely people helping us to this:

SMALL TALK

Toothache

Letting go has been crucial for us in defining our sound and bonding as a band. 

It’s about how the decision to let go can be painful, because we hang on to people or situations. Although sometimes it’s inevitable to let go, in order to grow and to make space for something new.


Letting Go

A cute but sad song about being 182263kms away from someone you love on an airplane.

Sea of Clouds

Need You Now
