Chicago based Tyler Sjöström releases the new single ‘I Don’t Know You Don’t Know‘. Having began as an indie folk artist, Tyler found himself in the topline world of EDM. Having a feature on a track that has 13 million Spotify streams, he’s slowly building a European audience.  I haven’t seen someone transition from indie folk to EDM/Pop, but after listening to the latest single, Tyler could do it. Yes, the track is that good. Check him out March 21st at Bourbon on Division in Chicago, IL

KOAR favorite Work Drugs pumps out the first single of 2018. The feel-good warm vibes Miami Nights is a perfect release for the coldest month of the year. In the typical Work Drugs fashion, the track is inspired by the best sounds of 80’s, plus a sax breaks out towards the end.  The Philadelphia dream pop act releases their music via Bobby Cahn Records and have been steadily building a fanbase. Additionally, they’ve performed SXSW and CMJ, and shared the stage with Two Door Cinema Club, Umphrey’s McGee, and Maps and Atlases.

Jon Worthy manages to recreate the magic of the best indie rock of the nineties. He just dropped the album Only A Dream that was recorded and produced with Lincoln Parish of Cage The Elephant at his studio in Nashville. If you dig deeper into the album, you’ll hear similar melodies from that of the greats, be it The Beatles and The Yardbirds.  Stand out tracks include Help Me and Have it Your Way.

Maria Milis , the 19 year old released her first ever 4 track dreamy-atmospheric EP which details a toxic relationship.  My favorite track Bring Out The Devil In Me has a Lorde vibe, while Medusa sounds like she was hanging with Adele when she wrote Skyfall. While the EP is far from perfect, its moments of messiness makes it special.  Hailing from North London, the singer songwriter cites Lady Gaga, Stevie Nicks, Kanye West and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers as influences.  Check out her short documentary discussing the meaning behind the tracks.
