Finding the Sweet Spot

Singer/songwriters seem to be everywhere right now, and though most tend to release singles rather than albums, a handful have found a comfort zone in the middle ground that is the EP: collections of three to six tracks that allow them to express their ideas more completely. Here are four recent releases by a mix of established and upcoming stars.

Frizzell D'Souza
In My Asymmetry

Frizzell D'Souza's sophomore EP adds bubbling synths and orchestral soundscapes to the kind of acoustic guitar-driven tunes that featured on her 2022 debut, the well-received The Hills Know Of You. Blessed with one of the best voices to emerge out of the Indian indie scene in recent times, she charms again with songs variously dedicated to lovers, family and friends, each of which matches her technical dexterity with raw vulnerability.

A BIG SEA SNAFU

The December 2004 tsunami took the lives of 171 people in Kerala, with one panchayat, Alappad in Kollam district, taking the brunt of it—132 lives lost in a single day. Situated on a narrow 16 km-long strip of land, and sandwiched between the Arabian Sea and the Thiruvananthapuram-Shoranur water canal built in 1880, the coastal village has been protesting against the scourge of offshore black sand mining for over five decades now. But to no avail. In 1955, Alappad covered an area of 89.5 sq. km, today it is a whittled down 8.9 sq. km, the rest of the land taken by the tides.
