August 26, 2024

Tel-Aviv/Israeli based indie pop band RGB are gearing up for the release of their sophomore album, A Place for Lovers. Meanwhile, they have just released their new single off the album, Parties.  The band comments, “Our new single ‘Parties’ captures the feeling of not fitting in, with lyrics that poignantly reflect on isolation, self-criticism and self-doubt. Yet, the song transitions to a hopeful and optimistic chorus with the line, ‘I can finally feel my face in the sun,’ symbolizing a shift from darkness to light, from night to dawn – the overall theme of our new album A Place For Lovers. This emotional journey makes the song both relatable and inspiring.” You can check out the new track with their lyric video here: About the album The songs on A Place For Lovers are part of an ongoing heart play, an intimate, sometimes exhilarating, sometimes melancholy reflection of the ups and downs of Roy and Noi’s personal love story.

August 26, 2024

She was showing me photos of her and I from high school, and I couldn’t remember anything at all about them. To my eyes, I looked like a completely different, happier person. It drove a sense of worry about how much of my life had been lost to a sadness I’ve never been able to define. “The footage was captured by Sarai Kelley over the course of the two and a half weeks we spent around Europe in March/April of this year.” For more information on the band, [Read More]

Palaye Royale’s latest album, Death or Glory is a must have!

September 3, 2024

Palaye Royale’s has released their latest album,  Death or Glory and it is a musical masterpiece.  We’ve been following Palaye Royale since our first listen back in 2013. We declared them as the Best Indie Rock Band You Have To Hear. Over the past decade, we’ve watched them grow in every sense—artistically, musically, and personally. Their evolution has been incredible to witness, especially considering the obstacles they’ve faced along the way. One of the most significant challenges and life changing moment was the heartbreaking loss of their mother, Stephanie, who was not only their biggest supporter but also their greatest champion and a true bright light in this world. To see them move forward and come through all of that and deliver Death or Glory is nothing short of amazing. This album feels like a culmination of everything they’ve been through, with their raw talent and vulnerability on full display. It’s a testament to their resilience and unwavering dedication to their craft. Death or Glory is not just another album—it’s the result of years of [Read More]
