Triptides – “So Many Days”
With a sound compared to a sonic hybrid of The Byrds and Pink Floyd, this Californian trio creates a sun-drenched blend of psychedelia and retro pop. Consisting of Glenn Brigman, Brendan Peleo-Lazar and Stephen Burns, they’ve played various festivals such as Desert Daze and Barcelona Psych Fest and toured the West-Coast as well as Europe. They released their debut single “Going Under” in 2011.
Despite the arrival of the cold winter weather outside, the title-track of their new EP brings the warmth of the Californian sun inside. With a distinct 70s-styled folk-pop vibe from the acoustic guitar, mellow drums and the country-esque steel-guitar producing a vintage-dipped, laid-back melodic haze, it’s the dreamy vocals that forges their airy, resplendent and nostalgic summertime reverie.

Janet Jackson – “The Pleasure Principle”
From her album “Control” (1986):Fly By Midnight – “North”
From their album “Silver Crane” (2021):Alice Gray – “Comatose”
Raised in San Diego and now based in Los Angeles, this Californian singer and songwriter always loved music, but she grew up painting, drawing and playing sports. It wasn’t until she took a songwriting class that she got the confidence to post her songs online. Influenced by the artistry of Lana Del Rey and Frank Ocean, she debuted her rich indie-pop sound on her single “Pink Cadillac” in 2017.
Creating a mesmerizing sonic dreamscape in which to tell her story, her new single encapsulates both a genuine vulnerability and a heartfelt passion. With an electronic shimmer from the synths, a voluptuous rhythm and an infectious hook, she’s forged an irresistible tune. And with her lavish, multi-harmonic vocals sparkling on the notes, this groove transports the listener into her musical world.
