Shelf Lives – “All Grown Up”
Country: UK
Genre: Post-punk
Words From the Artist/PR: “With All Grown Up we’re offering listeners a relatable journey that explores the nature of personal growth, self-acceptance and the complexities of navigating societal expectations. ‘Growing up’ is challenging, no matter the specifics. You can’t escape the societal pressures that inevitably shape your identity. You can end being on auto-pilot, where you may feel like you’re going through the motions without truly being present or connected to your own desires and passions. You get pushed into an internal and external battle of pursuing your authenticity vs. conforming. It gets crowded when you step in line but we’ve been socialized to believe that it gets lonely standing out from the crowd.”

David Hobbes – “Measure of Degree”
Country: US
Genre: Indie Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: When I write a song, often a line comes to me and it’s not until later that I understand what the song is about. This song is one of those. It started off as just a play on words: “She was always wrong, became a writer.” And then it turned into a window on two people in a relationship desperately trying to prove to themselves they are not who they fear themselves to be.

Joey Maxwell – “Shoelaces”
Country: UK
Genre: Alt Rock
Words From the Artist/PR: Video shot and directed by Jamie Waters AKA JAW – well known for his work with Jazmin Bean, Bring Me The Horizon, Sam Fender etc. and for generally being very sick at what he does in the rock world Audio itself is disgustingly hooky, a track about social anxiety and was the catalyst for his genre change. Will be the cover of Dork’s Hype Playlist to land with the release this week, previous support from the usual suspects Clash / NME / Notion / LOBF etc
