From the depths of the Tel-Aviv music scene emerges The Takeoff with their electrifying new single, “Life Is a Rumor.” The track channels the swagger of ’80s rock while blending it with a moody, new wave–tinged blues grit. As a trio, they deliver explosive guitar work layered over commanding, high-impact vocals, creating a sound that feels both […]

Jobi Riccio is a Nashville indie Americana artist, but with her new single “Buzzkill,” she leans into a more punk style, rock-forward sound. This shift mirrors her angsty, introspective lyrics, which capture what it’s like to navigate your twenties and the emotional phases that define those years. As someone in my mid-twenties, I find this […]

Austin artist Katherion is proving she has what it takes to stand out with “Bad for Me,” a track from her debut album EROS. This softly haunting indie-pop song explores the tension of being in a relationship you know isn’t good for you. By focusing on feeling rather than specificity, the lyrics invite listeners to […]
