As we age, we all think about the “what-ifs” in life and how choices affect our future selves. In Mae Krell’s latest single, “who we said we’d be”, she explores past relationships with loved ones from her childhood and how paths in life affected those relationships: “I was scrolling through my phone late one night and a ton of my old friends had posted on social media around the same time. After having not seen much from them in a while, I suddenly noticed that they had moved away from the city and were still in touch, like we had always talked about doing… but it seemed like I was the only one who didn’t. I consciously know that I made the decisions that were the best fit for me considering individual circumstances, but sometimes when I see glimpses of where I could be if I had made a different […]

In diet lemon’s latest single, “natural”, he rhetorically wonders why he always runs away when things get complicated. This driving indie rock track incorporates diffuse chattering voices, swirling synths, piercing guitar riffs and reverberated toy bells to create an other worldly texture throughout. The song is the battle between past trauma and new beginnings. You find yourself falling into something new and beautiful, but now you must actively challenge the negative memories associated with misplacing your trust before. “natural” is upbeat and exciting on the surface, much like a budding relationship – but the lyrics undertone a deep-rooted anxiety.

The Ivy’s latest single, “Street Dogs” is an homage to the stray dogs they encountered on a trip to Mexico. They do what they want, but nobody bothers them as they play their role in society. Lyrically, the concept of the “bad boy” character with confidence and swagger was inspired by the four-legged creatures. This track gets its production shine from Grammy winning LA duo SameSame (Portugal The Man, Cage The Elephant), who co-produced and co-wrote this song. Tusla-based duo The Ivy developed their sound by fusing indie rock with R&B, Pop, and a touch of pop punk sensibility. After receiving 25 million combined streams on Spotify with their viral singles “Gold” & “Have You Ever Been in Love”, the duo is set to deliver their debut full-length album ‘A Door Still Open’ this year.
When it’s good it’s great, but we all know that the highs never last. The new single “I’ve Been Here Before” by Goodvibes Sound explores this back-and-forth that we all experience throughout life.

This release is the first in a series of singles which will culminate in their forthcoming album entitled “Sunset City”.

In Certainly So’s latest single, “Lucid”, the band explores this introspective concept.

Hailing from Birmingham and Nashville, this self described “post-angst” band was formed in 2010 by the joining of longtime friends who have been collectively refining their classic inspired indie rock sound for the past decade.
