You should definitely check out Nick Howe and his song “Crash.” It’s a lovely track that throws you off guard a bit. In the first few seconds, you might think it’s just a run-of-the-mill ballad, but then the tune shifts course and delivers an anthemic, memorable chorus. Instead of a crash landing, it takes off.

Hailing from a long line of family entertainers dating back 200 years, including May Warden from “Dinner For One,” Nick Howe is a consummate musician who never takes his foot off the gas. His relentless drive has turned minor opportunities into significant career milestones, including syncs with Cadbury’s and Angry Birds. He’s also acted in the ITV series “Lewis” and performed at Glastonbury and SXSW.

With his inherent knack for creating killer low-key hooks, Nick Howe writes to process his emotions and experiences, treating his music as therapy.

His debut EP, “Struggle Is Real,” reached No. 1 in the singer-songwriter presale iTunes charts back in 2016 and sold over 2000 copies.

Touring over 15 countries, including the US, and extensively throughout Scandinavia and Germany, Nick performs an average of 200 shows per year. He has sold out gigs at home in venues such as Cargo, Kensington Roof Gardens, and even the Natural History Museum, which he lists as a career highlight!

Nick has also co-written music with Ivor Novello-winning songwriter Iain Archer (James Bay, Jake Bugg, Snow Patrol), Matty Benbrook (Paolo Nutini, Jack Savoretti, Dido, Faithless), among others.

Watch out for Yodashe and her track “CHRYSALID“. Blending experimental and new age genres, the track takes listeners on a sonic journey. Beneath the soundscapes lies a powerful message of overcoming adversity, embracing authenticity, and finding inner strength.

Yodashe is a London-based indie artist and producer with a background in architecture. She debuted her solo electronic project in NYC as an alumna of the Redbull Music Academy. Since then, she has performed at various electronic music festivals, including Sonar, Todays Art, and Reworks, and at smaller club-nights, opening for acts such as John Talabot.

Her debut single, “MRKTPLC,” was featured in The Fader’s essential “Songs You Need In Your Life: January 2024.” Her second single, “FAM,” was highlighted by BBC’s Fresh On The Net in their “Fresh Faves.” Her latest single, “EASTER,” premiered in KALTBLUT magazine and was featured on The Line Of Best Fit and Fresh On The Net’s “Eclectic Picks.”

Watch out for Heather Kathryn and her track “GO TO HELL.” This song brings back the perfect blend of pop-punk, dark pop, and alternative from an era before music was pussified. Fans of Paramore, Avril Lavigne, Miley Cyrus, and Demi Lovato will approve, and it would fit perfectly on Spotify’s “New Noise” playlist.

Heather describes the song as, “all about embodying that bad bitch energy.” She shares, “It celebrates being unabashedly yourself, sexuality and all. It’s a bold, in-your-face track that shows my edgier punk influences as an artist.”

Heather has performed at iconic Los Angeles venues such as The Viper Room, El Cid, Whisky-a-go-go, The Troubadour, and The Hollywood Palladium.

Watch out for Estella Dawn and her new single “514 Denim.” It’s danceable, fun, and sexy—a track that could have saved Dua Lipa’s latest unforgettable album that vanished from the public eye.

“Tattoos in the dive bar
Lil grit, lil heaven, yeah
Levis in the low light
514 denim, mm,” sings Estella.

Noting similarities with the freedom of flow and lyrical nuance of Dominic Fike, Sabrina Carpenter, and Doja Cat, the track seamlessly intertwines euphoric dance vibes with seductive electric guitar, slick melodic rap, and a soulfully satisfying hook.

Check out l.ucas’s latest track, “ATTENTION.” This radio-friendly pop song features slick, groove-injected production reminiscent of Charlie Puth, complemented by l.ucas’s smooth falsetto voice.
