Heads Or Tails – Winona Forever
28 April 2018
Vancouver band Winona Forever is one of my favorite discoveries of this year. With two EP’s under their belt and a new EP on the way, “Heads Or Tails” is Proving to be their strongest single yet. With jazzy horns, a groovy bass line and some of the best drumming I’ve heard from an indie band in a while. Winona Forever is rising fast.

Bet She Looks Like You – Nick Hakim
17 April 2018
Where do I start? Nick Hakim’s soulful voice hit me like a truck. So
much so that I remember where I was when I first heard him. I was
trying Japanese shaved ice for the first time (Not a fan) and this
song was playing in the store. Me being a music nut I got up out of my
seat and politely demanded the name of the song. I immediately put it
into my playlist and had it on repeat for days.
Halfway Zen – Jerry Paper
11 April 2018
This is Jerry Paper. His unique style of indie synth pop is something I can only describe as “Toy Box Music”.

His happy go lucky style brings out your inner child as he sings with an awkwardness you can’t help but love.

Cool – Zack Villere
13 March 2018
Zack Villere first caught my attention with his video for his song cool. A wonky electronic jam about feeling uncool.

Not only is the song super catchy but the video is the most awkward thing I’ve seen all year…

Call Me Up – HOMESHAKE
20 February 2018
When I first discovered this song I was blown away. With me recently getting into the indie scene I had a lot of ground to cover. This song always stood out to me and set a standard of creativity in the genre that I look for in other artists. This jazzy Lo-Fi electronic fusion was an undeniably great mix. Which was why Homeshake chose this as the lead single for his album Fresh Air.
