Sydney-based singer/songwriter Xela makes her way into our site with this sensual record titled “Small Talk”, an R&B/soul infused track that explores true feelings and her stating exactly what she needs from her partner. Over soft and warm textures made up of rich layered keys, guitar licks and a smooth drum groove, Xela paints a picture of a woman who doesn’t rigmarole and she goes straight to the point. Her sultry vocals cut through the mix and her unapologetic songwriting is clear as crystal when she sings “Don’t be so calculative/ let’s be spontaneous” and further implores her partner to move past shallow interactions and lean towards something more meaningful.
