Brooklyn based artist Andy Cook is bringing the chill vibes of the weekend to the work week for all of his fans to enjoy. Most recently, this artist has released a new single from his forthcoming EP, Modern Man entitled, “Run.” With undertones that resemble that of Jack Johnson and John Meyer, Andy Cook has the unique ability to produce music that allows listeners to escape to the world that he paints with his creative lyricism and dreamy soundscapes. Repetitious rhythms and drum patters lull listeners into a trance that becomes a safe place away from a world of high level stress and fast pace requirements. This is a feat that was highly intentional and considered during the production of this new single. In his own words Cook says, “These songs might mean something totally different to listeners than they do to me – but they mean something, and that’s what matters most.”
As an exciting new teaser that is essentially a precursor for his long awaited release of Modern Man, “Run” is a fantastic new addition to this artist’s repertoire. The full EP is scheduled to be released on April 13 and those who are following him on his social media outlets as well as fans all over the world could not be more thrilled.

Californian singer-songwriter Chris Lambert is gearing up to release his brand new record, The Constant Education of Christopher Lambert on May 9. The indie folk album is the eleventh full-length release by Lambert, and features “Right”, a charming and well-crafted track that is both introspective and relatable.
Says Lambert, “I spent a couple of years doing a deep dive into my past, figuring out a bunch of things that had been left unresolved or unspoken for too long. Once I got that stuff out on the last album, I felt like I could finally start focusing on day to day things. I realized that it’s harder than it seems, to not dwell on the past or worry about the future.”
“Right” shows the maturity that Lambert has reached, not only as an artist, but also as a human. The acoustic track pairs insightful lyricism with a gentle yet purposeful melody. While the track involves self-conversation, many listeners can put themselves in Christopher’s shoes. It’s different yet familiar, and a refreshingly authentic track.
The Constant Education of Christopher Lambert is out on May 9, so keep an eye out for it! Stay connected with Chris Lambert: Instagram – Facebook – Bandcamp

Alt-indie newcomers, FEVA, just release their latest single. “Makin’ Waves” is a debut off of the English based band self-titled album FEVA. The song is sure to be an indie-rock classic with focus on guitar, drums and vocals, while maintaining an upbeat feeling. “Don’t feel like you gotta settle down—baby lovin’ ain’t for us all.” “Makin’ Waves” encompasses an important message in the song for people of all ages. The line I specifically mentioned: “Don’t feel like you gotta settle down,” is especially crucial. In today’s world of have a stable career, education, and S.O. (significant other), by the time that you’re thirty is not only stressful—it’s daunting. “Makin’ Waves” really came around full circle for me, making me realize that you have to go out there into the world and make waves…literally. Settling down isn’t an option, so don’t make it one. FEVA sure didn’t.

Take one listen at Yoshi Flower and he may sound familiar. Yoshi, also known as Josh Smith, is a former member of the duo Gosh Pith. Now Yoshi Flower is breaking out as an emerging solo artist, and just released his latest “Just On Drugs.” “Just On Drugs” has a “So-Cal” vibe which is perfect considering summer is right around the corner. Yoshi Flower, reminds me of Blackbear, however less produced which makes listening to Yoshi easy. “Just On Drugs” combines EDM and pop while Yoshi shows off his rap and vocal skills. “Just On Drugs” has a pretty clear title, but an abrasive meaning. “We’re just on drugs—it’s not love,” states Yoshi Flower. My favorite part about “Just On Drugs” is its truthfulness and “I don’t care” attitude.
