My loyalty to LÉON dates back to 2016. I found her through Spotify and when I saw her perform on Corden’s Late Late Show, I knew it was only a matter of time before the world felt what I felt when I heard her sing. Flash forward to Coachella last year and I actually cried at her set. I cannot believe I’m admitting this now…
Ivy Rei just dropped her amazing lyric video for “Good To You” and we’re obsessed with the pure pop sound.
Ivy Adara is stepping out on her own and it’s clear she’s one of pop’s brightest up-and-comers. She just released her EP and already the shimmering songs have been stuck in my head. We talked to her about her EP and being vulnerable. How did you get started in music? Ivy: Honestly it all stems back to when I was …
LEON has a very special place in my heart. After easily the worst breakup in my life, I dragged myself to her show, my eyes still swollen from crying. Based on her catalog of music, I knew this wasn’t the smartest decision but I couldn’t miss her.
We love Joseph Luca’s vibe. He just released his song “Full Time Lover” and we are just over here dancing along. What’s even more impressive is that he played all of the instruments in the song. We talked to him about Prince, his inspirations, and obviously, the new song.
We fell in love with FLAVIA’s new song “Hateful” there’s this dark sound to it, but it’s undeniably catchy. It tackles the important issue of bullying, she’s not afraid to shy away from a tough subject. We chatted with her about finding her sound and sticking to her guts.
Kios is an indie rock band based in Nashville, TN. The three piece is made up of Cole Suddarth (vocals/guitar), Aaron Krak (drums), and Mitch Wollenberg (bass). Cole and Aaron met through a previous band that formed at Belmont University – Aaron and Mitch grew up together in Newark, Ohio; all three moved to Nashville in 2014 to pursue music.
The pop-punk band Boys Like Girls was the soundtrack to my teenage years and was the beginning of my love affair with Martin Johnson. Fast forward to about this time last year and I received a new song recommendation from a friend. Immediately I knew the familiar. Martin Johnson’s latest band, The Night Game, provided my life with the 80s pop soundtrack I never knew I needed.
Gin Wigmore’s voice is ridiculously captivating. She’s been busy in the studios working on her album due next year, but also she’s been very busy being a mom. Having relocated from New Zealand over 12 years ago wasn’t exactly easy for Wigmore. She says, “I made the final leap after 7 years in Australia and a few failed relationships. It was pretty terrifying moving and completely starting from square one again but as soon as I got my click of pals, I was set. I think that’s one of the main things you need to get sorted when you move to a new city for the first time, find good friends ASAP!”
