If you yearn for the days of emo, when bands like The Used, Story Of The Year, and Saosin ruled the airwaves, look no further. Silos has just released their latest single, “Lighthouse,” and it will transport you back to the MTV2 era. You won’t be disappointed. They also brought in some heavyweights to add to the vibe, including Crazy Town, known for their megahit “Butterfly.”

‘Lighthouse’ is a very special song about finding love in a dark place,” shares GARRISON. “Coming out of a long battle of addiction and into a new journey of sobriety, I met someone who helped carry me through and light my path. Also, in this time frame I met Seth ‘Shifty’ from Crazy Town who was on a similar journey. After I had this song, I couldn’t think of a better person to feature on it and be in the music video. He’s a ladies’ man, an OG and understands the lyrics more than anyone I know. This song is a supersonic blast through pop, rock and electronic and the music video we have for this is as EPIC as can be. We are excited for ‘Lighthouse.’”

SILOS, based in LA, is a band with members from around the globe—bassist Philip Strange Nielsen (ex-CrazyTown) from Denmark, guitarist Nick Dromin from Ukraine, and drummer David Rehmann and guitarist Ramón Blanco Ariza from Spain, both with touring time for Grandson.

Look out for Luke Whalen’s new 3-song EP, ‘Maybe This is Who I Am.’ I was pleasantly surprised after giving it a stream. The first song, “Rooftop,” feels like Post Malone grabbed an acoustic guitar, followed by The Kid Laroi jumping in on the second track, “Sixteen.” “Mixed Signals” is where Luke Whalen finds his own space. If you’re after something chill with melodies that stick in your head, this is it.

Meet Luke Whalen, a 17-year-old independent artist from Highlands Ranch, Colorado. He’s on a musical journey crafting pop/indie tunes, doing it all solo—mixing, mastering, songwriting, publishing—he’s a one-man show, except for the instrumentals.

Whalen says about the EP, “”Of course it feels good to get these things off my chest, but for me it feels even better that others can relate and feel a similar way through these songs.”

In 2019, Luke ventured into music, influenced by his mom’s singing background and his dad’s writing skills, Luke believes he got the best of both worlds. He recently performed at the Durango Songwriting Expo. With 15 singles and a music video under his belt, he’s racking up nearly 250,000 streams on Spotify. His debut EP, “Maybe This is Who I Am,” dropped on November 24th,

Watch out for Floss Jordan and her new song “Turbulence.” The infectious track hooks you in immediately.I almost thought I was listening to Dido or maybe Sia, but then Floss Jordan comes into her own and sounds better than her predecessors. This track could take her to the next level.

The track portrays a narcissistic relationship. Floss Jordan describes the tension caused by one person wanting calmness and stability. “Turbulence is a beautiful but powerful portrayal of the sentiment caused by tension in a relationship, when one person wants calmness and stability whereas the other needs volatility and turbulence to keep their connection alive.”

Floss Jordan, initially a dancer, has shared the stage with Charli XCX, Years & Years, and Breach, appearing in ads for Apple Music. She’s modeled for London Fashion Week and brands like Tommy Hilfiger and Lee Cooper Jeans. As an international DJ, Floss has spun for MAC Cosmetics, Netflix, L’Oréal, and more. She’s supported Basement Jaxx, played at prestigious venues like the Natural History Museum, and contributed to the music scene at various iconic spots like Sushi Samba, Soho House, and the BBC Studios.

Joy Downer has released an upbeat track called “Alright” that combines elements of new wave, garage rock, and bubblegum pop. The song has a unique blend of past and future pop music.

In her own words, Joy says, “Have you ever felt too comfortable or trapped in your own life? Have you ever felt like you were playing only one role when you know you’re capable of playing many? It’s okay to feel lost, to take bold steps, to pursue your dreams and rediscover yourself again and again. This song is meant to reassure us that it’s alright to feel this way.”

Despite her stage name, Joy Downer is actually a California-based musician and model who took on her husband’s last name after marriage. She and Jeffrey work together on her music. Her birth name is Joy Bishop, and she comes from a large Mormon family.

Joy has found a niche in the alternative rock scene. She had a chance to perform with Beck on Corden last year. On her latest single, “Chain Reaction,” she collaborated with Pearl Jam’s Mike McCready and percussionist Lauren Brown. The song was released on McCready’s Hockey Talkter Records and was performed on The Late Late Show.
