Colleagues is a synthpop Stockholm act that just released their EP ‘Visits’. The first catchy single ‘Talk It Out’ is layered in synth with an anthemic chorus. They’ll perform their debut show on July 22nd in London. Earmilk notes, “Built around its uplifting mix of repeating synth beats, “Talk It Out” carries a positive tone throughout. While not venturing far beyond the medium that is set in the songs opening, “Talk It Out” is evidence of what Colleagues can do without altering their to-the-point formula.”

FEiN is an alternative duo from Los Angeles with a sound similar to Portugal. the Man, St. Vincent, and Mother Mother. The duo met while pursuing music at USC . They’ve toured nationally, performed at the Sunset Strip Music Festival, and played live on the nationally broadcast Artie Lange Show. They feel equally at home busking on a street corner as a duo or performing in a theater with a full band. “The LA duo has a way of making music that keeps you coming back for more. With this EP, FEiN continues to create a distinct sound that blends their wide array of analog talents with synth-pop tendencies that’ll make you turn up the stereo (or maybe just the volume on your laptop?)” – Beating Lights Blog
