Night Verses “A Dialogue in Cataplexy”
Emo screamo but this ain’t no teenie bob complaints, this is real pain, told through shredding guitars.
Michael Rault “Real Love (Yeah)”
When Lenny Kravitz was shredding, yep that’s what Rault has goin’ on.

Sing high, sing proud!

Like early Arcade Monkeys? You’ll love this.
Whitney “Golden Days”
Whoa, this band is channeling George Harrison and other 60’s/early 70’s hippie rock n roll.
Trooper “General Hand Grenade”
Classic. You may not know who this band is, but you’ve probably sung along to “"We're Here for a Good Time (Not a Long Time)" with friends. Here’s another rocker from this late 70s band.
Neck of the Woods “Left Behind”
The drumkit is punished, the mic is chewed and spat out.
4B “Middle”
Master of the club vibes.

Soaring indie rock by a Mumford and Sons-style duo.

Good For Grapes “Stung”
Stomp along to G4G’s cascading track.
Nick Bike “the Funk Stick"
Bike will deliver the funk throwdown at Motown this week withoutadoubt.
Billy Talent “Louder Than The DJ”
Alt punkers have been rockin’ it since the 90s, and in a crazy twist of fate, you can see them at the Roxy! No joke!
DJ Isaac “Pirates”
You’re being launched out of a rocket with the weapon that will save the future of humankind. Kinda epic.
Shawn Mendes “Ruin”
The kid’s got soul.
