Colour Tongues – “Midnight Island”

Country: Canada

Genre: Indie Rock

From the Artist: “Almost three years in the making, Colour Tongues’ debut LP is ready. “Midnight Island” is the title track of the album. It is a nostalgic and shimmery journey with a dreamy dip and a powerful crescendo. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it.” 


Medical Pilot – “Bandaids”

Country: Canada

Genre: Pop Rock

From the Artist: “Bandaids is a bitter breakup anthem in the best way. Exploring the ideas of being better off without someone and the feelings that come with it, the song reaches soaring highs both vocally and instrumentally.” 


Mother Mersy – “Take You There”

Country: Sweden

Genre: Rock

From the Artist: ““Take You There” is the focus track from Mother Mersy’s powerful debut album, built on a lot of pain. The songs have been created through hard work and fragile, genuine emotions mixed with humor and attitude, by creators that never hesitates to approach the ugly and raw. Producer Gustav Brunn (Danko Jones, Mando Diao, Viagra Boys, Timbuktu & Damn!) has managed to capture the energy and nerve from their live shows, recording the songs in legendary Tambourine Studios.”


Lazy Sidekick – “Needed You”

Country: Australia

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Artist: “Needed you is about thinking that you need to be with someone in order for yourself to be happy and always feeling like you’re just going down the same path and doing the same things but then realising that you are actually way better than you think and you realise you’re being too hard on yourself, so by changing some things in your life and taking some risks that you don’t usually take, you find happiness within yourself.”


Bull – “Stuck!”

Country: UK

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Artist: “Built around an organ riff ‘Stuck!’ is a strange beast that manages to be both a chaotic slice of funky indie rock and an irresistible pop tune all at once. A symphony of layered vocals, horns, recorders and probably a kitchen sink as well, this is Bull showing off all their maximalist ambition. “’Stuck!’ is about a character who is on a journey between the virtual and physical worlds” frontman Tom Beer explains. “They see the entire universe but can’t get back to reality or hold onto the virtual world leaving them Stuck! ‘Stuck!’ is Bull’s answer to ‘Smash Mouth’s ‘All Star’.”


Daniel Jüde – “Roulette”

Country: US

Genre: Indie Rock

From the Artist: “Daniel Jüde is an American rock singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist/producer from Florida. Daniel was raised on rock and has always been a musician from a young age. At 20, Daniel moved to Manhattan working in the fashion industry as a professional model with FORD Models.

Blake Morgan – “Violent Delights”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Artist: “Indie-music iconoclast Blake Morgan’s highly-anticipated fifth album Violent Delights is out May 20, 2022 on ECR Music Group. The native New Yorker, artist, producer, multi-instrumentalist, label owner, and activist is riding high from the critical and commercial successes of his breakthrough singles and music videos of recent months. The New York Times calls Morgan “Disarmingly unselfconscious.” Billboard proclaims, “Morgan has a voice that was made to be heard on the radio…inspired songwriting and passionate performances.” The Washington Post writes, “He’s got killer pop-rock instincts, something that leaps out at you…as well as a flair for recalling the days of pre-digital sound mixes. A natural when it comes to fashioning sharp melodies and catchy choruses.”


Favvkes – “What You Said”

Country: Canada

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Artist: “Fed up with a relationship, “What You Said” is a nostalgic pop-punk anthem produced by Mike Tompa (Silverstein, Cindë, Deadwinter). It’s about all of the things that weigh you down when you’re putting so much energy into making it work when it just doesn’t anymore, and having a hard time accepting that.”


socialghosts – “Hills”

Country: US

Genre: Indie Rock

From the Artist: “This song is about the point in a relationship when it’s clear that it’s not working and you have to decide if it’s worth it to keep trying, or if it’s just time to just let go.”


The Mellons – “What Time To Be Alive”

Country: US

Genre: Rock

From the Artist: “What a Time to Be Alive is the second single from baroque-pop outfit The Mellons. It features dream-stricken lyrics, a whomping bass line, and a small symphony of instruments. Original music video produced and directed by The Mellons. Signed to Earth Libraries.” 


23 And Beyond The Infinite – “Horsedance”

Country: US

Genre: Rock

From the Artist: “First single taken from the upcoming album Lumen Del Mundo. A rough mix between post-punk rhythms, surf guitars and garage rock attitude.” 


Fab The Duo – “Nice Guy”

Country: US

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Artist: “Fab The Duo’s latest single “Nice Guy” is inspired by the incredibly low bar our society has when it comes to dating men. The duo share, “Many men act like the world owes them (sex, a relationship, praise) for not being a terrible person and they often use the excuse of being “nice” to get away with terrible things. We all know a “nice guy”… it’s time someone wrote a song about it!” Written during the pandemic and after witnessing many of their friends deal with these “nice” guys, Fab wanted to shine a light on how they’re not always as good as they seem. Heavily inspired by early 2000’s pop-punk, such as Blink 182 and Bowling For Soup, “Nice Guy” emits a fun and fiery energy, with fast-paced, crashing percussion, crunchy punk rock guitars and passionate vocals, delivering an overall IDGAF attitude. “


Meguro – “Hearts Like These”

Country: Canada

Genre: Indie Rock

From the Artist: “Hearts Like These draws on the idea that we all have ghosts from our past who haunt us from time to time, but understanding the difference between reality and fantasy is what is truly important when this happens. The song started out as a ballad but transformed when Ian introduced the driving Motown beat, which spurred Bob to write the opening guitar riff.”


Just A Ride – “Last Man Standing”

Country: UK

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Artist: “”LAST MAN STANDING” is an upbeat, attitude-heavy rock sing-a-long anthem that describes the ups and downs of a volatile relationship. Taken from our first recording sessions after the release of their critically acclaimed debut album, we’ve worked to develop our sound, mixing a love of early 90s grunge with both classic 80s metal and modern alternative rock sensibilities. It’s a song that connected really well with audiences on our recent tour and has some instantly memorable hooks that get the crowds moving.”


VEERS – “Wolf At The Door

Country: UK

Genre: Alt Rock

From the Artist: “Neff pounds like he’s being paid extra on this one, backbeating James vitriol: “You think you’re better than most and have for a long time / Why would you thik I’d get on my knees and let you walk all over me.” Says James: “This song really is about being the best you can be and trying to stand out in the crowd. … Being a musician today really feels like you’re a fish swimming upstream, and having people around you — sometimes even ‘friends’ — think you’re just unworthy to be on the same playing field, [well] fuck ’em. Go for what you want.”
