“The Stupid Reasons utilizes a bit of campy theatrics to deliver their track, ‘Hot Springs.’ By their own admission the song owes a tip fo the hat to David Lee Roth’s ‘Just a Gigolo,’ and it certainly delivers that same brand of tongue-in-cheek fun neatly packaged into an Indie Rock track. ”
“Blurring genre lines, Harry Gray delivers a soulful groove to this Rap flow. Harry pays no mind to mainstream sounds and instead stays true to making music that evokes a spiritual response from himself and his listeners.

“The search for love tends to leave us all jaded and fed up at some point. Many of us become reluctant to love or trust but then that right person comes along and blows away those brick walls. That’s what Miya Zawa’s single, ‘likedamn (whoa)’ expresses. The energy and talent sell the emotion well and carry the listener along for the joyride.”
“Plenty of music claims to be a fusion but in the case of RJ Pasin and Sophia Powers new track, ‘XO,’ the term is one-hundred percent accurate. Metal Core Pop? Electro Pop Punk?
It doesn’t really matter how you label this in your face ode to cutting through the noise of societal pressures and delivery your truth, because you will feel it deep in your soul.”
“I’m a sucker for the timeless sound of a good Rock song and LA area band, NIght Talks know how to deliver exactly that.
’Gasoline’ is Indie Rock gold about the dangers of comparing yourself to others. The lyrics are a good reminder that we are all happiest when we are simply the person we are meant to be. ”
“Real true connections are tought o find so many of us have found ourselves in the dismal situation of a forced relationship. You know things could and should be better but its hard to walk away when things are also not that bad. This track is about the growing awareness that the time to escape has arrived, as well as the freedom that final decision can instill within us.
Savanna Leigh sell the lyrics well and you can feel the layers of emotion both before and after in her performance. The video and musical arrangement adds some whimsy lightness to what is a big decision. ”
“Chicago singer/songwriter Sean Skyler has been carving a place in the musical landscape while honing his craft. His latest track, ‘Follow’ You’ is a an upbeat and energetic ode to love and reckless abandon that only love can bring. A perfect feel-good summer track to put some bounce in your step and a whistle in your lips.
Or hey ... it could be a jaunty song about a stalker. Only sort of kidding but the track made me smile so I hope it does the same for you.”
“The song has a catchy beat that immediately draws you in. I also like the creative approach taken by JAMMY. He effectively share’s his perspective on political issues and relatable experiences, making the song resonate on a deeper level on political issues as well as things people experience. The song is short but has an impact to whoever is listening.”

Neena Rose clearly needed no such reminder as she penned this tender loving ode to mother’s and planned the release to coincide with the holiday.
The track is artfully written and performed and you’d no doubt warm your own mother’s heart by sharing this track with her.”
“Chloe Star is breaking the mold by redefining what a Pop Star is supposed to be. The 27-year-old singer, songwriter, visual artist, and tribal advocate split her time between Los Angeles and her family’s reservation in San Bernardino while growing up. This past year Chloe’s star has been on the rise, and she is now an in demand queer performer only a short time after making her official debut in 2023.
’TNT’ is a big bold party anthem that almost dares the listener to challenge the in your face lyrics. Of course Star is up to the challenge of proving she has nothing to hide and all the talent to shine. ”
“Listening to ‘So Good’ from Andy Tongren conjured the same feeling as sitting fdowna nd having a cold beer with a good friend on a warm weekend afternoon. In other words it feels .. so good.
The song is light and airy in a folks Indie Pop kind of way. This is the kind of song that will make a good mood feel even better, and transform you from a bad mood into a happy one as you listen.”
“The Gaffes are an Alt Rock band from Chicago and they deliver the exact kind of classic Indie Rock sound that is timeless on their single, ‘Passerby.’
The best music often feels like you’ve heard it all your life from the very first listen and that is exactly how I felt hearing this track. I’ll be adding this one to several of my playlists and I suggest you do the same.”
“Bonfire joins forces with Ellysse Mason to give us ‘Tide Shadows.’ An emotional Indie Rock track with hints of Folk, the song features Mason’s haunting and vulnerable vocals as well as the added layers as the track builds to give it even more emotional depth and power.”
“Roots of Creation creates a feel good vibe with ‘Move Along.’ At least musically. Lyrically the track is more about dismissing the haters, the dead weight, the roadblocks in your way. There is certainly a freedom in that and the groove here has an uplifting vibe that makes it easy to believe you can simply shrug away all the negative people. Maybe we can. Let’s give it all a shot and simply let the good times roll over us. ”
“Clara Lars is a rising star and ‘Better’ is the latest track to showcase her incredible talent. This Alt Pop track explores the end of a complicated relationship and the idea that we can all emerge on the other side of difficulties with as a an improved version of ourselves if we take the lessons and avoid repeating them.”
“autolemy is a producer, songwriter and author taking a fresh approach to expressing his art via multiple mediums. Releases his albums with fully integrated novels, each novel has an accompanying album of original songs that complement scenes from the book.
Be Someone is the second song from autolemy’s second album/novel ‘Assisting Fate’ - which released alst month.
The song is soulful and smooth and even without the accompanying story lands with skill and precision because of the talent and emotion.”
“Carrying the mantle of talent out of Compton, Yestrdy delivers a flow that lands somewhere between Kendrick and Yelawolf in style for the track, ‘Awful Lot.’
Lyrically the track is about getting older and wiser and realizing the place you are might not align with where society expects you to be by a certain age. But it might be perfect for how you feel on the inside. This is a track about being true to yourself and who you are.”
“The PØRTERS are putting the fun in dysfunction with their latest track, ‘The Thrill.’ This hard edged song tips its hat to classic rock but feels fresha nd new while doing so. Crazy can be thrilling for a time and knowing you are in a relationship doomed to explode comes with its own brand of adrenaline that this song taps into for a fast paced thrill ride.”
“Sorry, PEach gives us a tranquil Indie track with tender vulnerable vocals early on to truly hook the listener emotionally. ‘Of course the question ‘why are you so scared?’ ... to love me, is one only asked when you find yourself in a vulnerable position so the feel is perfectly matched with the early lyrical build.
Sorry, Peach elevates the track and lets the music do more of the heavy lifting as the frustration takes over for the back half of the track. A masterfully crafted song.”
