Standing Tall in the Storm – “Soldiers” by mylittlebrother

Mylittlebrother’s latest single Soldiers is the kind of track that quietly sneaks up on you, then wraps itself around your chest like a comforting, bittersweet hug. It’s indie rock with real heart, layered with glowing guitar textures and warm vocal harmonies that shimmer like morning light after a long, restless night.

From the first few bars, Soldiers feels both familiar and fresh, there’s a clear nod to classic British pop, but it’s filtered through a distinctly modern lens. The production is lush without being overdone, thanks to Alex Blamire’s crisp work at Polestar Studios. Every sound feels intentional, each instrument taking its moment to breathe. But what really elevates the song is the emotional sincerity pulsing at its core.

Frontman Will Harris isn’t just singing, he’s revealing. You can hear the weight behind every note, the push and pull between resilience and vulnerability. Soldiers capture that unspoken battle we all face, the quiet daily fight to hold ourselves together, and the courage it takes to let our guard down even for a moment.

There’s melancholy here, yes, but also hope. A sense of rising up, not in defiance, but in gentle strength. If this track is a sign of what’s coming on Throwing Darts At Maps, mylittlebrother’s next album might just be their most poignant and powerful yet.
