From School of Rock bassist to bubblegrunge frontwoman, Rivkah Reyes is stepping into the spotlight with her debut EP, Fan Favorite. The New York-based musician and actor will release the six-track project on November 6, alongside the chaotic new single “Menace” — a crunchy, bratty blast of indie rock that finds Reyes leaning into the mess.

Nashville indie-rock outfit The Sewing Club are back with ‘Bark’, a fuzzy, melancholic new single that finds the band leaning into the darker edges of their sound. Built on distorted guitars, hazy hooks and a slow-burning sense of unease, ‘Bark’ tackles the moment someone you trusted reveals themselves to be someone entirely different. It’s a bruised, grungy slice of indie-pop that sits somewhere between Momma, Soccer Mommy and Rocket, pairing heavy subject matter with an irr

Eden Samara is back with another glimpse into Odyssey — and this one comes with strings attached, emotional baggage, and absolutely no interest in settling. The London-based artist has shared “Unsatisfied”, the third single from her forthcoming second album Odyssey, due September 4 via Local Action and Lapsus. Produced in collaboration with TSVI, who also featured on Samara’s debut album Rough Night, “Unsatisfied” pushes further into the restless, genre-blurring world she has
