Nuclear Shadow – “Jawbreaker”
Country: US
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Jawbreaker by Nuclear Shadow is for the women who are sick of smiling on command. We’re told to hold our rage in…but what happens when we don’t? The song is influenced by old-school Pixies and Bikini Kill, as well as more current artists like Stef Chura, Faye Webster, and Idles. With driving guitars, a sludge-y bass and organ beat, and cutting lyrics, it’s a great pick for fans of indie rock, indie punk, garage rock, riot grrrl, and more.

Union Duke – “Coming In Clear”
Country: Canada
Genre: Americana
Words From the Artist/PR: “Coming In Clear” is a song about getting older, about change, about how some relationships and habits don’t serve you anymore and how we all have to choose how we want our lives to look and who we want to spend them with. Maybe we’re getting wiser or maybe we just see things clearer. Or hey, maybe that IS wisdom! Life is beautiful even if change is scary and hard.

Words From the Artist/PR: IOWA DRIVE was born with some chords inspired by hard rock bands from the 70s, in a small room imagining a large venue in which to play it.

Shawna Virago – “The Barman’s Daughter”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Shawna Virago steps behind the bar with a gleam in her eye and fluttering eyelashes. That’s the central image nestled inside her new song “The Barman’s Daughter,” in which Virago dissects family problems from the eyes of a daughter, whose father is “still stuck acting like an extra from the film ‘The Outsiders,’” Virago explains. The song’s subtext bursts from the trans perspective, but its innate, rambling grit gives it a universal shine. “If you’ve ever worked in a bar, you know you need to be an ambassador of peace, while practicing your boxing skills,” Virago tells B-Sides & Badlands. “In my case, I also learned to smile more and batten my eyelashes for bigger tips. Works every time.”
