In The Spotlight

Hazel English – “Five And Dime”

Born in Australia, this singer and songwriter initially studied creative writing in Melbourne. She moved to San Francisco in 2013 on a student exchange program, before settling in Los Angeles. Drawing inspiration from the music of the swinging sixties like The Beatles, The Mamas & The Papas and Jefferson Airplane, she debuted her sun-kissed vintage pop sound on “Never Going Home” in 2017.

Wrapping striking 60s psychedelia in a coating of dreamy pop, her new single takes you back in time, while keeping a foothold in the present. Taken from her upcoming full-length debut album “Wake UP!”, expected on April 24, it’s the sleek bass, mellow beat and a touch of steel guitar that forges the nostalgic melody, while her warm, angelic vocals give a shimmering retro shine to this luscious tune.

Charming Liars – “Blame”

When a teenage Karnig Manoukian and Mike Kruger met in London’s West End, they decided to merge their eclectic musical tastes and began playing in a series of bands touring all over the UK. After a bold move to Los Angeles in 2013 they found chemistry with vocalist Kiliyan Maguire. They debuted with their 2013 EP “New Disorder” and recently toured with The Faim and Angels & Airwaves.

Giving refreshing contemporary indie-rock an anthemic chorus and sprinkling it with some neon flavors, their new single shines bright like the summer sun. Driven by a bouncy bass, gleaming guitars and a relentless rhythm, it blends modern sounds with some cool 80s rock vibes and with the slick and energetic vocals adding a sunlit sparkle, this spirited jam is a rockin’ good way to treat your ears.
