by Michael McCarthy When I listen to indie pop band TENTS‘ dreamy new album, Medicine, I tend to feel like I’m floating in the clouds, perhaps riding a magic carpet.

“Naked” is the latest single by South London production/artist duo Temptress, which consists of Jess Belgrave and Vlad Woodham-Smith, who’ve run up a couple of million streams since 2016.
