Girlpuppy - "Cheerleader"

Girlpuppy is the moniker of Atlanta based Becca Harvey. Back in April she released a love song called "For You," and three months later comes "Cheerleader," a break up song about the same person. "Cheerleader" is about Harvey wanting her dog back from her ex. It's a lush, gorgeous song in its obvious melancholy. Harvey's vocals are what will truly pull you in. She has this softness and vulnerability that is palpable through a recording. The quiet instrumentation and harmonized vocals complement the song perfectly. "Cheerleader" is the kind of song that is going to stick with you for a long, long time.

You can listen to "Cheerleader" below. For more on Girlpuppy, check out the artist on Twitter and Bandcamp. On Bandcamp you'll also find a perfect cover of Mazzy Star's "Fade Into You," so you'll want to check that out.
