Brighton-based band SoftTop have returned with the beautiful new single, ‘Broken Glass’. It’s defined by soaring, acrobatic vocal melodies and a piano accompaniment which is complemented by subtle orchestral flourishes. It’s a lyrically heartbreaking cut that remains musically tender and thoughtful throughout. The track “was written from the eyes of someone watching the person they love choose someone else. The pain of seeing them together on a night out for the first time, making that choice, and then having to live with it is marred with a sour acceptance that it might be for the best.” Keep an eye out for more from SoftTop later in 2024. -Dan Peeke
