San Diego native Kendra Checketts hit us up with the fresh-faced pop of her latest offering, “Kinda, Sorta.” The song is about the butterflies-in-your-stomach feeling about feeling like you might mess up a first date (think lines like “But I maybe, kinda, almost sorta think that I already did”), but the heartfelt vocals and strong melodic background give off a different vibe – this one could sit comfortably on a shelf next to Carly Rae Jepsen or even some of the poppier tracks from Alvvays.
