As much as love can tear people apart, there is sometimes a rarer, more optimistic love, awaiting around the corner. BANNERS’ new song “Have You Ever Loved Someone” details a special type of relationship, one that’s filled with hope and relief. He goes on to say “Have you ever loved someone so much it tears you apart?”, explaining how all-consuming yet magical love can be, dependent on the person. Thus, if listeners have only experienced rocky relationships so far, this track provides an exuberant makeover to the common heartbreak song, encouraging all of us to fight harder for “true love.” Starting with high energy guitar strumming, the verse progresses with a punchy drum beat and anthemic vocal doubles, climbing down in energy before the chorus. Reminding me of artists like Bastille, metallic vocal “ahhhs” and crashing drums help drive the song forward, balancing intimate falsetto moments with raw chest delivery. I really appreciate the change in chord progression during the bridge, as the production adds these sweet-sounding wooden knocks. Overall, the song felt brightly joyous, like new beginnings could be just beyond the horizon. As early as age 7, Michael Nelson began playing music at the Liverpool Cathedral, developing his unique talents with the help of his father. Since then, he’s become somewhat of a household name, garnering wide acclaim and recognition. Amassing 1B+ streams and 6.7 M monthly Spotify listeners, many people have likely come across his 2019 single “Someone To You”, featuring upbeat, cinematic production and authentically optimistic vocal delivery. Having signed to Island Records, Michael released his first EP “Empires on Fire” in 2017 and the self-titled compilation “Banners” in 2016, establishing his controlled yet raw sound. Utilizing everything from soft organ, fast piano, and cinematic drum hits, I have been re-playing his song “Perfectly Broken”, amazed at how intimate and emotive the melodies and lyrics feel. So, although he’s already proven himself as an amazing artist, I hope he continues creating! Written By: Conner Pettit FOLLOW BANNERS:

Listening audiences have speculated and debated over who Joni Mitchell was singing about in her iconic single, “A Case Of You”. While we’ll never know if it was about James Taylor, Graham Nash, Leonard Cohen, or someone entirely different – we do know that it’s a heartbreaking love ballad. “A Case Of You” describes the emotions and overall connection we continue to feel for a partner long after the relationship’s end. It’s a bittersweet testament to the strength of love and serves as a befitting inspiration for Meg Smith’s latest single “Joni”. Whereas “A Case Of You” has accepted the relationship’s end and acknowledges the imprint a former lover leaves on you, “Joni” showcases how this imprint makes us initially struggle with accepting the end of the relationship. “Joni” is a Sapphic pop-rock single about a partner you once envisioned driving into the sunset with, abandoning you and the connection you shared. The single not only captures the grieving period we experience after a relationship’s end, but expertly utilizes Joni as the name of the partner Smith is struggling to move on from to potentially hint at the notion of loving the idea of a partner more than the actual partner. A romantic phenomenon Joni Mitchell themselves experienced countless times throughout their rise to stardom. The song opens with dark, moody guitar chords that beckon listeners to reflect on the relationship alongside Smith. The opening verses inform listeners that Smith’s former partner had mentally checked out of the relationship long before ending it. Which is not only gut-wrenching, but cruel because it makes anyone in Smith’s position wonder how many shared moments held sentimental value for both partners. Or, if the sentimentality was only experienced by Smith, with Joni merely entertaining them. This creates a line of questioning of what could have been done to save the relationship. Smith even remarks in the pre-chorus: “If I had cared a bit less / Would you care a bit more?” The guitar chords then take on a softer, sullen nature in the chorus as Smith grapples with Joni leaving and becoming a vision “lost in my rearview” mirror. Enveloping listeners in raw vulnerability and authenticity. But the third verse shatters my heart to pieces; despite being the partner that was abandoned, Smith feels a considerable amount of guilt. However, it's not necessarily for the relationship's ending. Our artist evaluates their own faults but not Joni’s to “keep [them] a sweet thing”, which suggests that the guilt being expressed is for loving the idea of Joni. When we love the idea of someone, we go to great lengths to preserve our vision of them to prevent having to come to terms with the reality at hand. By preserving this vision of Joni, Smith does not have to face Joni’s absence being permanent. Meg Smith is a singer and songwriter currently residing in NYC. Listeners might best recognize the artist’s voice from their 2021 single, “Cross My Heart I Hope U Die”. The single’s been featured on season two of Netflix’s Ginny and Georgia and serves as the theme song for OUTtv and Apple TV’s ERZA. If feeling like the protagonist of an early 2000s rom-com fits your vibe, then Smith’s discography is definitely for you. Fans based in NYC can see Smith perform live and feel like Jennifer Garner for the day on July 8th at 7:30 P.M. in Chinatown through Sofar Sounds. Sofar Sounds hosts intimate, live performances at secret venues that audience members won’t know the location for until 36 hours before the scheduled performance – it’s an exciting experience that's guaranteed to bring listeners closer to our artist. Tickets for Smith's performance are $28 per person and can be found here. But if you’re based elsewhere like I am, you can still show our artist some virtual love and support through streams, likes, and follows. Written by Giavanna Gradaille FOLLOW MEG SMITH:

Broken trust is an immensely painful experience, and often, it’s an experience that can lead to rage and revenge. Sometimes it's just easier to act out in anger instead of being the bigger person. The latest single by Bambii Lamb “Thread” is a song that combines the fun sound of alt-pop with the sour taste of betrayal in the lyrics. The track shows a high level of creativity that Bambii Lamb possesses and explores in her sound. The song feels as if there is a ticking time bomb of emotions waiting to explode and that imagery is pushed by the production on this track.

From the moment the song begins, we hear this bell-like sound that immediately makes it stand out in a good way. The beat of the song is incredibly catchy and it’s what contributes to the fun energy of the track. This energy in contrast to the dark pictures being painted by the lyrical content is what keeps listeners on their toes One of the standout lyrics includes “dangling by a thread, strangle you with it” may come off as concerningly twisted, but it’s a transparent view of how deep the pain of betrayal can go. The harmonies layered in the song sound beautiful as they help build the ambiance of the track. It’s also important to note that Bambii Lamb’s vocal performance is unique and memorable, as she has a gorgeous voice.

“Drunk & Lonely” despite it’s deceivingly depressive title, is an upbeat pop punk anthem actually boosting self worth. That title “Drunk & Lonely” rather refers to those whom she wishes to avoid, men whose reliance on her grows only with the things they lose. It’s an unempathetic rejection, and rightly so. Though the characteristics she describes in these men: loneliness, being incapable of self care, would usually be expected to provoke pity, it is clear these things are used in a way that manipulates the sympathy they create. So, Tyler flips the script and calls them out as unworthy of her attention and pathetic, in need of help maybe, but not from her. Her lyrics refer to the manipulation these men conduct in the way their words don’t match their actions, they say a lot being “drunk and lonely” without any follow through, so now Sofi finds herself being the honest one. Her refusal to be used and an array of lyrics reflecting her own self confidence make the song an empowering piece. The song begins with a scattered but steady guitar beat. Tyler’s voice begins over it, with the guitar steadily increasing its pace behind her. She has a voice made for rock, low and almost raspy with a certain tone behind it found only in the classic rock artists that came before her. Even though this alone labels her singing as invaluable, she still manages to surprise the listener. When the guitar settles into a more continuous melody, her voice carries a note across this intro that adds a sort of femininity not usually seen in the genre, displaying her range beautifully. The chorus is reminiscent of 2000s pop punk such as Avril Lavigne and is just as catchy, this is a song meant to be screamed along to after only the first listen. The song ends on a final rendition of this chorus, upbeat “drunk and lonely” on repeat until a final whisper of “and that’s all you’ll ever be”. Sofi Tyler was born in Wilmington, Delaware to a family who loved rock music. When she was young, she began watching Hannah Montana whilst being a fan of artists such as Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones, and her genre was born. She left Wilmington as soon as she finished high school to chase her passions for music in California. There, she would go on to study music before eventually deciding to go her own way and simply create. Her first release “Monotony” was written for and featured in the film “High Strung” made in 2016, she would also go on to appear in its sequel “High Strung Free Dance” two years later. The song is still one of her most popular, holding over two hundred thousand streams on Spotify. But, she hasn’t stopped there, she’s spent her time since its release creating three additional singles and cultivating an audience, especially on social media where she’s earned over 10k followers on Instagram and over 50k on TikTok. Join this audience now by following her below and streaming “Drunk & Lonely”. Written By Hailey Schap FOLLOW SOFI TYLER:

Bre Kennedy’s latest single “Meantime” once again shows off Kennedy’s rich vocals and touching lyricism in a mid-tempo love song. She sings about how life can be tricky, and we’re all changing, but ensuring that she still loves and adores someone in the meantime while she focuses on herself. The rawness in her vocals and more laid-back production creates a more vulnerable, confessional-type song that makes it feel she is just wearing her heart on her sleeve. My favorite type of music are the songs that feel authentic, inspired, and honest. Bre Kennedy does this so effortlessly in “Meantime,” and I can’t wait to hear more of her music. The track opens up with Kennedy singing “They say love is selfless / I can’t be anyone to anybody / If I don’t know who my self is.” We don’t always know who we are or where we’re going or how things will turn out. But, as Kennedy expresses so deeply in this song, it is working through these moments and on ourselves that will allow us to fully show up for someone else. The chorus features soft vocals as she sings “When we’re in the meantime / Know I still adore you” and “The cold hard truth is / Me loving me is loving you / While we’re in the meantime.” Sometimes, we must grow and change and learn to be there for ourselves, apart from those that we love. This is an ode to those loved ones that, in the meantime, we still love them and are expressing that love by learning to love ourselves. Acknowledging that times are difficult, but assuring them that you still love them. She conveys this message between layers of contemporary pop production. Bre Kennedy is a singer-songwriter from California that moved to Nashville to discover her sound and build her career in music. "Meantime" comes as the third single, following "Navigating" and "Retrospect," off her upcoming project "Scream Over Everything (Side A)" releasing on July 28, 2023. Along with the release of her single, she announced that she will be taking off on her first U.S. headline tour with stops including Atlanta, Chicago, Milwaukee, and more.

This song tells the all too relatable tale of a couple who knows their relationship is over but has to hang on for one more night.

Maggie Andrew’s feisty new single is a cheeky nod to her ex-partner and all their pitiful flaws. Throughout “Better Than You,” Andrew confesses her negative traits and the things she dislikes about herself. She acknowledges that no one is perfect, especially herself. The first verse explores all her flaws, from minor mishaps to major faults. But the chorus reveals the hook that, despite all this, she is still “better than [them].” This leads into the second verse, where she begins calling out her former partner’s flaws and her candid feelings about them. Without spelling out why, she reveals that she is livid with how they treated her and who their true character turned out to be. After the break-up, Andrew has finally come to the realization that after all this time, she is not the problem—they are. With “Better Than You,” Andrew eloquently expresses her justifiable rage through the sarcastic lyrics and edgy production. “Better Than You” has a fiery production that perfectly complements Andrew’s angsty narrative. The song kicks off with a muted guitar and bass playing the melody together that continues into the first verse. The second half of the verse introduces the electric guitar and a bass drum as the song builds into the electrifying punk rock chorus. Additional drums and a bass pick up while the guitars play only power chords, enhancing the edgy lyrics. At the end of the chorus, a second guitar playing the melody is added to bring a powerful emphasis to the post-chorus. The instrumentation stays consistent for the remainder of the track to maintain the high-energy, angsty atmosphere. In the final chorus, only the original guitar and vocals are heard to end the track. Then, Andrew closes out the song with her vocals singing, “I’m so better than you.” With “Better Than You,” Andrew ingeniously matches the cheeky lyrics with the powerful production to create an unforgettable, confidence-boosting track. Maggie Andrew is an alternative-pop singer-songwriter from Halifax, Nova Scotia.

Some people are painfully difficult to understand. You try and try and it feels like you’ll never penetrate the wall they built. Like a Rubik’s Cube, it takes a while to solve the puzzle but once you do it's easier to understand. Once you get a peek through their façade, it’s easier to outdo them at their own game. Mira Housey cleverly makes this connection in her new track Rubik’s Cube. She likens solving a Rubik's Cube to out-manipulating a manipulator. Her decision to use the classic 80’s puzzle game as a metaphor for manipulation is such a smart decision that immediately pulls the listener in for more. This Alt-pop banger begins with a low boil. Mira’s vocals echo back and forth creating a dark and mischievous soundscape. The instrumental features an acoustic guitar plucking strings to mimic a game master toying with everyone. This atmosphere fits perfectly into the genre Mira has aptly named cinematic pop. Rubik’s Cube supports the journey of self-actualization. Mira’s character in this song catches on to her partner's manipulation and makes it her mission to play their game. Her decision to fight fire with fire and fully lean into her power is something like a movie. When the plot reveals the hero was 8 steps ahead of the villain the entire time. The track is a story of triumph as Mira describes her victory of out-manipulating her partner. Mira Housey is a classically trained musician out of Michigan. She began her journey studying piano and eventually posted her compositions online. She soon began writing and performing her songs, adding those to her account as well.

She has since written and produced many songs for popular artists. She began her solo music career not very long ago, reaching 40 million fans in just over a year.

TULLE’s latest single is a fiery dark-pop track about accepting fate and leaning into the role of a villain. “I Hope Your Demons Look Like Me” explores the grim “themes of revenge and transformation.” TULLE’s lyrics detail the aftermath of being done wrong by someone and her road to vengeance. Through the vivid imagery and biblical allegories, she describes transforming into the soulless villain that this person made her become. Although the first verse and the chorus only allude to the destruction and grief this person caused, the second verse bluntly exposes the truth. TULLE sings: “You made me what I am// You have yourself to blame// All the years of deceit, all the years of pain// I had to reincarnate.” After all the deception, lies, and betrayal, TULLE decided to embrace the dark side. The chorus reveals the sinister, yet clever hook: “I hope your demons look like me// You wanna see me in your dreams// I told you I can smell fear, come over here// I hope your demons look like me.” With these lines, TULLE ingeniously depicts her desire to be the ghost that haunts their dreams and the demon that lurks in the shadows. The imagery is gloomy and mysterious, making “I Hope Your Demons Look Like Me” one of my top songs of the year and an excellent addition to TULLE’s morbid and gothic discography. “I Hope Your Demons Look Like Me” perfectly encapsulates TULLE’s characteristic ominous aesthetic with the eerie lyrics and the dark production. The song kicks off with a bass line that is reminiscent of early 2000s rock. A brief synth wave that is met by TULLE’s vocals signify the beginning of the first verse. In the background, a guitar plays the melody with a significant delay effect that provides an echo on the notes. The audience is hit with the first indication of pop influence when the beat is introduced. The first chorus contains only the beat and the guitar, before the beat drops and the bass returns for the full synth production. The dynamic track contains a consistent flow between the bass line and the beat drops to deliver a mesmerizing dark EDM soundscape. With “I Hope Your Demons Look Like Me,” TULLE once again gives listeners a satisfying blend of deep synth beats and electrifying guitar riffs to create her iconic “death-pop” genre. TULLE is a 24-year-old singer-songwriter based in Oslo, Norway. She has been writing music from a young age and takes inspiration from alt-pop artists such as Lorde, Phoebe Bridgers, and Glass Animals. To explain her dark genre of music, she coined the term “Death-Pop.” In August 2022, she made her aesthetic known with her debut single, “Dead Dead Dead.” Each release since then has upheld this very dark imagery, with “I Hope Your Demons Look Like Me” as her fifth single. She is currently working on her debut EP, From A World So Unkind, which discusses themes of “loss, grief, suffering and rebirth, and aims to ask the big questions; what happens after death, and what do we become after grief?” Her unique and grim style instantly catches the attention of listeners and lures them in to discover exactly what “Death-Pop” entails.

Society puts a lot of pressure on us to be perfect human beings. We're made to feel like we have to overwork ourselves to be seen as successful, and still look refreshed and unbothered at the end of the night.
