A band started by three NJ natives who go under the moniker ARIZONA are buzzing with their latest track ‘Where I Wanna Be‘. With hints of M83, although it’s hard to pin the band down, they’ve clocked hundreds of thousands of Soundcloud streams. Having just signed with Atlantic Records, the band spends most of their time either on the road creating in a mobile recording studio they built in an old Toyota. The three piece indie-alt act is back in their NJ hometown working on the 2016 upcoming release.

UK Indie alternative act Secret Company has become a 2015 favorite and could be a 2016 breakthrough artist. Why? Unlike their cohorts, the band has a knack for writing memorable anthems followed by classic guitar riffs. The new single release ‘Picture’ follows their debut EP that contains the track ‘Saviour’ which has garnered over 150,000 plays Soundcloud. Lead singer & guitarist Scott Revell explains the meaning behind the new track …“I fell out with an old friend of mine and he went on to tell another mate of ours what happened. This other mate, hearing only his side of the story then stopped talking to me as a result. Frustrating, because I didn’t feel in the wrong at all and maybe if he’d have heard it from my point of view, things would have been different. But he never did. Quite often, I think people will hear things about someone and then take that word as gospel. There’s always another side to the story, so I decided to tell mine with ‘Picture’”.
