Selected #17: Romantic rock stars and successful covers
Amuse, amuse
This week our featured artist is romantic indie rockstar Hazlett. Originally from Australia, but now based in Sweden.
Take a look at his Q&A on the 'Selected' highlight on our Instagram (@amuse.io)
Hazlett - Easy now tiger
With his daring, romantic lyrics Hazlett sure stands out. If Bon Iver and Miley Cyrus were to have a child, and that child became an artist - the music would probably sound something like this. His taste in photography and film is also something to check out - his IG is full of gems.

Lil Gemi - All On My Mind
If you were to be on a boat for six hours, this would be the tune for you. This track almost feels infinite while listening to, in a good way. With its repetitive warm guitar theme as well as Lil Gemi’s relaxed, soft voice, it will most likely put you in an airy trance.

sexjacket - bipolar
If a song could sound like the palm trees of Los Angeles - this would be it. In a way it feels like sexjacket is out of breath, singing his last words for us to hear. ‘Tell me what I’m missing’ - the lyrics sure are relatable atm.
