Chicago’s Plainro dropped one of the year’s best EP’s in LEAVES. It hit the web in late October and should have gotten way more buzz as the multi talented artist has a great ability to switch up genres and make every song sound beautiful. His newest offering, CHNLS has his signature sound containing breezy vocals and a soothing beat. The song has a pop sensibility, but as the hashtag of the song entails, is definitely a singer/songwriter track.

Tiffany Hines has the Midas touch as she flows alongside Plainro with her sultry voice that adds another layer of serenity.
