BLVCK HIPPIE –Blvck Hippie makes VHS-inspired music for anyone who’s ever felt like an outsider. By melding an emo sensibility with an indie rock aesthetic, Blvck Hippie creates tunes for getting unstuck, existing weirdly, and finding togetherness. Raw vocals pair with sticky guitar riffs to create the Sad Boy Indie Rock songs of your dreams. With their firmly DIY attitude, refusal to accept the status quo, and knack for pushing musical boundaries, Blvck Hippie has turned being an outsider into their superpower.
LATCHKEY KIDS –Latchkey Kids’ Year of Summers is a modern Greek tragedy about growing up and falling out of love in New Jersey. On their sophomore album, Hanny Ramadan narrates a staggering emo epic that comes alive at basement shows and in beat-up cars, with guitarist Joey Grzybowski and drummer Cyle Morris soaring alongside him. An emotionally ferocious yet tender song cycle about grief, identity, and resilience in the face of an uncertain future, Year of Summers aims straight for the heart with bombastic hooks and sharp storytelling.
