Kings favorite Clide drops a new fantastic single WYL. Clide tells Kings, “WYL is one of the songs that really just came to me somehow.

You’l like Count Me In by For Tuesday especially if you’re in the mood for dark lo-fi indie rock. After a few listens, I was hooked, and I wasn’t sure what I was listening too, but I liked it. I’m searching harder than ever in sea of blandness and it’s refreshing to hear music from artists that are willing to take chances. The Pheonixville indie bedroom artist says, “it’s taken “years to get just right and thematically, it’s a track about being stuck in traffic on your commute home- reflecting on the road to get here and the road ahead.” The new single is marks the third single of 2020. Give it a stream on KOAR’s Indie Invader Playlist.
