We're putting the spotlight on one of our own! @Faded aka Karl-by-the-sea, a London-based indie pop singer-songwriter and producer, is preparing to release new music, and we encourage the ATRL community to check him out.

Originally from Hong Kong, which he left at 17, Karl draws on his experiences with identity, belonging and relationships to create music that blends breezy pop melodies, lush vocal harmonies and personal storytelling.

Describing his sound as Mariah Carey meets The Beach Boys, with a touch of Lana Del Rey, Karl brings together influences ranging from classic pop harmonies to more intimate, guitar-driven arrangements.

His latest single arrives this week as part of his upcoming project, Songs from His Guitar. Written on a guitar belonging to a former flame, the collection reflects on a relationship that ended but continues to influence his songwriting.

Let's show some love to a fellow ATRLer and support his new release!
