How about a little bass action to go with your buzz?

‘Weightless’ is new from London-based singer Anna Tosh. After playing in various bands, this is her first at going solo. The song, described by its promo “as cool as midnight in Reykjavik”, weaves soul into indie rock. And there is a spoken word interlude…always a favorite of mine.
