Look out for Andi Rella the track Best U Ever Had. It’s reminiscent of Tate McRae which I love.

The 24 year old pop artist hails from New York and draws from Eilish, Jojo, Olivia O’Brien, Madison Beer. She’s performed at venues such as Garcia’s @ The Capitol Theatre and Berlin NYC.

The track comes off her 14 track album Best U Ever Had.

Rella shares, “The song, for me, is cathartic. It’s a sort of moody breakup anthem about a back-and-forth, on-and-off relationship, but it focuses mainly on healing and acceptance. Sometimes we hold onto things way longer than we should because of comfort or history; but it’s important to recognize when it’s time to let go.” The song is well summed up by the last lyric of the chorus “I’m happy with staying in memories, so I’d rather you just remember me as the best you ever had”.

Pop trio Hey Violet released a 4 song EP. My favorite song is Breaking Up With A Friend. It’s a well crafted pop song and sounds like a TikTok hit. Fans of Bebe Rexha will enjoy. The Problems EP, carries the theme of loss and loneliness.

“Going through the process of writing these songs, I always felt like a chunk of me was missing so whether it felt like I was losing my connection with myself, wondering if I ever had it, or being let down by lovers or friends, there’s that general theme of incompleteness” shares Hey Violet.

They were originally signed to Capitol’s 5 Seconds of Summer‘s Hi Or Hey imprint, whom they supported on the Rock Out with Your Socks Out and Sounds Live Feels Live tours. Stream the track on KOAR’s Indie Invaders Playlist.

Indie rock duo ØZWALD releases groundhog days. Fans of 90’s rock will love, especially Stone Temple Pilot die hards. The song would fit perfectly on Apple’s Today’s Indie Rock Playlist.

STAIND frontman Aaron Lewis now country star released a new solo single, “Am I The Only One“. The track which disses Springsteen, skyrocketed up the iTunes charts, surpassing Big Red Machine’s “Renegade” featuring Taylor Swift. “Am I the only one here tonight, shakin’ my head and think’ something ain’t right,” Lewis sings. “Is it just me, am I losing my mind, am I standing on the edge at the end of time?”

Larry Rudolph resigns as Britney Spears long time manager – 25 years to be exact. “As you know, I have never been a part of the conservatorship nor its operations, so I am not privy to many of these details. I was originally hired at Britney’s request to help manage and assist her with her career. And as her manager, I believe it is in Britney’s best interest for me to resign from her team as my professional services are no longer needed. Please accept this letter as my formal resignation.

Classics still conquer the charts 30 year later. Over the July 4th weekend Queen’s Greatest Hits went to number 1 on iTunes and Joni Mitchell’s “Blue” landed on #2.

Watch out for Laces and the song Almost Happy feat. Butch Walker. You’ll love if you like the sound of the 90’s. Think indie electronic rock act Garbage. The track has Butch Walker on guitar that scored the radio hit in the late ’90s “Freak of the Weak” with his act Marvelous 3. The song also carries the same title as K’s Choice “Almost Happy”.

“Almost Happy” is that destination you reach as an adult. Content, solid, and maybe some residual bitterness left over from your youth. It’s simply a reflection on where you are and not where you’re going. Accepting who you are is a beautiful thing, even if it’s a lowkey confession of how messed up you are” shares Laces.

Jessica Vaughn aka Laces pens and produces music for Hasbro cartoons such as Jem & the Holograms, Baby Alive, Littlest Pet Shop, Equestria Girls, and secured placements on the CW, Netflix, ABC, and others, as well as films.

She’s landed on Spotify’s Soda, Fierce Femmes, Indie Pop, Chill Pop, and New Music Friday . Give it a stream on KOAR’s indie invaders Playlist.
