Manny Cabo – “Take You Home Tonight”

Country: US

Genre: Pop Rock

Words From the Artist: “This is one of those songs about reminiscing with the old times over someone that stole your breath away but sadly drifted apart as the years elapsed and suddenly one night in the distant future everything changed.”

French Alps Tiger – “Life”

Country: UK

Genre: Garage Rock

Words From the Artist: “If you can spank your entire ethos on living into a 2 and a half minute bop, you might be bad at being a person. ‘Life’ is our rage-stomping ode to embracing the stuff they didn’t mention at the end of Train-spotting, cuz you never woulda made it going straight anyway. A pack of tissues for your daddy issues, and a warm pint of “I didn’t ask to be born, Mam!”

Wilting – “CONSPIRACY”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist:  “Finding each other through posts on Facebook and Craigslist, Wilting formed at the start of 2021 during a cold, wet, and quarantine filled winter in Seattle. United by their shared desire to play loud and fast while also wanting a reason to leave the house, Ben, Leigh, Duncan, and Jay spent the first few months of practice focused on learning how to write music and play together. During this time they searched for a vocalist who could match the energy and abrasiveness they had begun to sculpt in practice. This led to a grueling process of playing with a rotating cast of new vocalists, trying to find one that could not only keep up with what the band was playing, but was confident and had a strong enough voice to be heard over the wall of noise that filled the practice space. After several odd and unique experiences with different hopefuls, searching ended after a practice with Phoebe that made it clear the band was complete. “

Zach Moss – “Cycles”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist: “I wrote this after a rough breakup that was entirely my fault. It’s about struggling with the same repeated behaviors or “Cycles” that lead to the same results. The sentiment can applied to any repeated negative behavior in life.”

SkyDxddy – “ALIVE”

Country: US

Genre: Rock

Words From the Artist: “Alive is a female empowerment collaboration, Featured #1 on Spotifys “All New Rock” playlist. The song has already been premiered on both SiriusXM Octane and Alt 98.7 radio stations, over the holiday weekend. With over 20,000 streams in the first day, “ALIVE” is sure to be a rock and roll hit for generations to come.”

The Love Ways – “Desire Lines”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist: “The new single Desire Lines by The Love Ways follows the repetitive and unplanned paths we take throughout our lives. These off-road grooves of life and love that we settle into, traffic us on trails which only we can see on our life’s journey to choice, self-definition, and permanent change. It asks, “in the conclave of the self, which color will your smoke be in the end?”

Jaewon – “Slow Death”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist: “Just a little boppity bop to get you boppin”

Chip & the Charge Ups – “Paying Back the Devil”

Country: US

Genre: Rock

Words From the Artist: “We’ve all felt beaten at some point. By people. Society. Life. Even our own minds. No matter which of those “devils” has beaten us down, we can channel our rage and bounce back, sticking it to the devil that has stuck it to us. “Paying Back the Devil” is an anthem of anger, aggression, and getting back on our feet, no matter what – or who – has knocked us off of them.”

Blinker The Star – “Bends You Like a Plaything”

Country: Canada

Genre: Alt Rock

Words From the Artist: “Love Oblast, Blinker the Star’s new album, was recently featured in SPIN and Stereogum, and called “deceptively infectious” by Tinnitist, who premiered the record. “

Different Devilz – “Killer Be Killed”

Country: Canada

Genre: Rock

Words From the Artist:  “Great riff throughout with soaring vocal melodies. Influenced by 90s alternative rock while still maintaining its integrity on it being an original piece.”
