MAKING TIME

new EP arriving This Fall

MAKING TIME is a new EP from Maine singer-songwriter Sorcha Cribben-Merrill in collaboration with Matt Appleton — Grammy nominated music producer, engineer and saxophonist, and multi-instrumentalist from Vermont.

This five-song record encourages us to make time for rest amid the persistent pace of life. We travel through multi-layered landscapes shaped by moody bass lines, bossa nova-inspired rhythms adorned by horns, bright piano and introspective guitar. Performed by Matt and Sorcha; featuring Alex Brander on drums.

pep talk

Meet the second single “Pep Talk” and its bright ‘let’s gooooo’ energy.

For every triumph, a thousand doubts. For every task, a hundred still undone. 'Pep Talk’ is a song about the push-pull of holding many responsibilities. This song is for all who wear (too) many hats, and especially fellow artists and small business owners who must balance being artist and manager of all things.

METAPHORS

Meet the third single, “Metaphors,” adorned by horns and slinky, sophisticated grooves.

This bossa nova-inspired folk-pop song encourages us take bold steps toward overcoming what feels impossible: one step at a time.
