REVIEW: Ally Cribb returns with her wondrous sophomore EP ‘NOW’
Over these last few years, Toronto’s Ally Cribb has been quick to establish herself as one of the more passionate names on the rise right now. With her 2022 debut EP ‘Unbroken’ cementing those warm and heartfelt tones she has been exploring since she first emerged, she has been spending much of the last few years figuring out her next move and where to take her distinctive sound. And after some time away from us, she now returns with her wondrous sophomore EP ‘NOW’, a release rekindling all of that bright and emotive energy she has harnessed since she first emerged.

Ally Cribb returns with emotional new pop EP
The music of Toronto, Canada-based pop singer songwriter Ally Cribb has been featuring on our pages since the end of 2022 when I shared her debut EP Unbroken.
Now is the follow up to that EP and explores Ally’s life from eighteen and into her early 20s, and the emotional turbulence that comes from romance in that period in our lives. Unlike Unbroken, Ally is the solo writer on all five tracks on Now, meaning we get a deeply personal record.
