Despite only having 5 tracks, Layover returns after a 2 year hiatus with a brand new EP beckoning back to the golden era of emo pop punk. The bands’ first EP since they announced an extended break in 2016, “Your Laughter Never Leaves” has Layover playing with a renewed energy and a band that’s matured both sonically and personally.
“YLNL” is filled with equal parts of wit and grit addressing a wide range of topics such as mental health and loss, sensitively and sincerely. When asked about the new tracks, vocalist Luke Rainsford said, “We are bringing a sound that is predominantly based within the American market. Our honesty and intense live shows bring a refreshing atmosphere that we feel sets us apart, but ultimately we are just 4 close friends trying to share our music.”
Somme is ready to take the spotlight with her debut self titled EP. Jordan Cantor, professionally known as Somme, has been playing guitar since she was 6, started writing songs a few years later, and then mastered the drums and bass by the tender age of 12. After performing in the indie rock band Traffic Bear in high school, Jordan enrolled in The Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music at NYU but decided to take an internship at Killphonic in Los Angeles for first hand industry experience. Since moving to LA, Jordan created her art-pop persona Somme and began writing what would be her debut EP.
Jordan Cantor embraces her new identity Somme, drawing inspiration from the greatest female songstresses and powerhouses like Robyn, Lorde, and of course Fleetwood Mac. She spent a year and a half writing and recording songs for her debut and strips away layers exposing the most vulnerable parts creating a debut that is equal parts beautiful, heart wrenching, and soulful.

Jack & Jack just dropped an acoustic duet for their smash hit single “Beg” featuring former tourmate Olivia O’Brien. The original track, written by Lauv, has nearly 1 million Youtube/VEVO plays and over 15 million global streams to date. That’s a huge accomplishment given Jack&Jack only released their major label debut EP, “GONE” a year ago!
“Beg” marks the first single for Jack Johnson and Jack Gilinsky to hit Top 40 radio and caught the attention of Z100’s Elvis Duran. Elvis recently featured Jack&Jack on the TODAY Show as his “Artist Of The Month” for January 2018.

Fly By Midnight have been putting in the hours and 2018 is shaping up to be a HUGE year for these guys! The guys just won Firefly’s “Big Break Artist of 2018” contest and get the once in a lifetime opportunity to perform at Firefly Festival in Delaware this May! Wanting to revive the most classic “guilty pleasure” tracks and the biggest female driven anthems from the early 2000s, Justin Bryte and Slavo just released a brand new mini EP to kick start the new year with some throwback vibes.
“The Boombox Series” mini EP is a small taste of Fly By Midnight’s wide musical influences. The first song they dropped was an infectious cover of Michelle Branch’s “Everywhere” which was literally everywhere when it first came out, and still follows us! The second track was Rihanna’s “Umbrella” which is such an iconic song that we still whisper sing it to ourselves every time it rains.
Today, FBM share the final track from their mini EP, “Complicated” by Avril Lavigne. JBryte and Slavo put their own twist on the power pop punk track with their distinct layered vocals making this a fun synthy remix that even the most secret fangirl wouldn’t be ashamed to admit they love!
Check out the fun video for their cover of “Complicated” below!

Pale Waves are a UK import of alt-pop force that will surely be one to be reckoned with in 2018. Having already played a sold out MSG on their first tour ever (with none other than The 1975), this quartet is gearing up for a massive year! Their dreamy sound is reminiscent of 80s synth pop with a hint of 2000s emo for good measure.
Consisting of Heather Baron-Gracie on vocals and guitars, Ciara Doran on drums, Hugo Silvani on guitar, and Charlie Wood on bass, Pale Waves just announced their first headlining tour for early Spring 2018 across the US.
The new tour is in support for their forthcoming EP “All Of The Things I Never Said” due out in February. Tickets for the tour go on sale January 12th at 10am local time.
