Robert Jon & The Wreck have premiered a music video for their brand new single "Hold On", which was produced by Kevin Shirley and released via Joe Bonamassa's Journeyman Records

Alt-Pop Trailblazers, The Veronicas, return to the international music scene with the release of their timely new single, "Perfect." The new song comes with the huge surprise announcement - An album, 'GOTHIC SUMMER', will release early 2024 via Big Noise.
"Perfect" is a riotous pop/rock anthem, infused with 90's style distorted guitars, shimmering melodies, and passionate adlibs. The spirited anthem reflects timely on society's compulsion with comparison and perception, urging greater self-love, and mastery of your own design. The gothic themed chorus lyrics (No one makes it out alive), reminding people that while we may exist as individuals, we are all connected by the humanity of our ends, vividly paints a picture of anti-ego anarchy.

Over the past fifteen or so years, I've delved into a songwriting area that seems to me, harkens back to my punk days in the simplicity of the chords, and trying to tell truths in the lyrics. Like the name of my and Susan's radio show, I let 'Three Chords and the Truth' guide me when I sit down with a guitar. (continue)

Jiants is a three piece indie/pop band from Toronto lead by ex-professional skateboarder Jesse Landen who are gearing up to release their new album "Tall Tales" on November 10th. To celebrate, we asked Jesse to tell us about the single "Moon Lit". Here is the story:
Moon Lit was the last song I wrote for our new record "Tall Tales". I think in the final hour before the studio I was thinking to myself "we need another single!". Which is a little funny, because now when I listen to the album it kind of seems like I was trying to make them all singles haha. Definitely my most accessible group of songs to date. I think when this song first started coming together I thought it kind of had a blink 182 vibe with the group singing parts. I no longer think that. I actually chopped out a whole verse/bridge that I really liked in the studio just to keep it from dragging on. I'm still pretty happy with that decision. (continue)
