Sam and Kasey here, your go-to 5SOS fangirls. So, it’s been about three years since 5 Seconds of Summer graced us with an album and two years since they presented us with a single. Don’t get us wrong, we both still continue to belt out “Girls Talk Boys” as the anthem that brought our friendship together, but we’ve been anticipating new music since July of 2016.
New Music Alert: NEKOKAT’s My Brain
If you’re familiar with the bands The Ready Set and The Summer Set, the voices you’re about to hear in this premiere shouldn’t be a surprise. Jordan from The Ready Set, Cameron Walker who’s collaborated with the group before and Jess Bowen from The Summer Set just embarked on a new musical journey. The trio formed NEKOKAT and we couldn’t be more thrilled to debut their brand new single, “My Brain.” I spoke with Jordan about their plans, sound, and ultimately the EP to drop later this year. I’m stoked to hear more from these guys and I know you will be too.
Humble The Poet: A True Renaissance Man
Humble the Poet might be one of my favorite interviews of the year by far. He’s confident, intelligent, and headstrong. We talked about his video premiere, “I Will,” but it ended in a conversation about life and the world.
New Music Alert: Laureline’s I Love You
Laureline has this shimmering sound that’s perfect for your pool days. Their new song is simply and boldly titled “I Love You” and the effortless vocals and catchy chorus have been stuck in my head since I first heard it. We chat with Chris and Ciera about the new song and their sparkling sound.
New Music Alert: Karolina Rose’s Goodnight, Mr. Moon
I fell in love with Karolina Rose’s voice instantly. Her new song “Goodnight, Mr. Moon” is so gorgeous and poetic it’s hard to believe she worked on Wall Street. We talked to her about making the transition to music and what’s been inspiring her lately.
New Music Alert: Carry Illinois
Austin has such a strong tradition of local music. Everyone is so supportive of each other and there’s this amazing culture surrounding local artists. We chat with Carry Illinois about their honest writing and their new music.
How To Prep For Hangout Fest 2018
Hangout Fest is coming up! The 3-Day festival that covers the gorgeous beaches of Gulf Shores Alabama is always one of the best fests of the season. Here’s what you need to know to prep.
Lostboycrow Is In A World of His Own
When it comes to drive and vision, it would be hard pressed to find anyone with the sense of direction Lostboycrow has. A little bit of pop, R&B, and electronic music fusion, Lostboycrow has set up a story with his releases.
BARKLEY Isn’t Just A Girl You Call At 3AM
We’ve all been there. We’re seeing someone and everything is vibing pretty well, but somehow they only want to talk when it’s 3AM. BARKLEY’s latest single, un-ironically titled “3AM” covers the exact feeling.
You Need To Listen To Cody Lovaas
Cody Lovaas’ music is the perfect soundtrack to kickstart your summer. Think throwback Jesse McCartney meets Cody Simpson.
