You need to hear “Sunrise Park,” the latest single release from Swussy. This tune will be the perfect fit for your summer 2025 playlist. The vibe is infectiously upbeat, the instrumentation is elite, and the vocals are on point. We love the production style on this one too. Overtop the traditional indie rock instrumentation, we hear stinging synth bass tones and ethereal, overdriven vocal layers, each heavily contributing to this song’s atmospheric energy.

Fans of Tyler, The Creator and Steve Lacey will instantly connect with this artist’s blend stylistic elements from different musical genres. We look forward to hearing more from Swussy in the near future.

Up next is Antti Everything with their single release, “Drifting,” a masterfully produced and inspiring indie pop song that makes us feel right at home. We love the mixture of instrumentation featured in this tune. Mandolin plucking, acoustic guitar strumming, and a shuffling drum beat evolve into a conglomeration of layered lead guitar tracks, piano melodies, different brass instruments, and more.

We hear similarities to the music from Vance Joy and groups like Mumford & Sons in this artist’s music, illustrated by their sanguine energy and fun vibe. Keep this band on your radar.

Kubra Commander is back with their new single, “When The World Ends,” a psychedelic pop banger bound for the charts. We love juxtaposition of feeling and lyricism in this one. Themes of uncertainty and fear of the unknown are conveyed through an upbeat, atmospheric vibe that feels familiar and comforting.

Their sound is a mix of indie rock and a dash of psychedelic rock influenced by The Smiths, Johnny Marr, Oasis. Fans of the more experimental side of modern indie rock will instantly connect with their style.

Emerging indie pop band Elle Belle is immediately infectious with their recent single release, “Figure 8.” This tune is vibey. We love the reverb-drenched guitar layers here; they give the song a classic surf-rock touch that is met with an authentically moody vocal style and an evolving, modern groove.

We think that fans of groups like The Marias and Still Corners will connect with this laid-back, experimentally airy and ethereal indie pop sound.
