Jukebox The Ghost Cheers Deluxe: New Tracks and Piano Interpretations

Jukebox the Ghost is set to release a deluxe version of their 2022 studio album Cheers. The piano pop trio is known for its catchy and clever pop songs with theatrical undertones. The deluxe version features four new piano interpretations and two new tracks and is set for release on April 7 via BMG. "We wanted to add tracks to the deluxe version that felt like they were already part of the album,” says Jukebox The Ghost.

All Hail The Queen: Scene Queen Refuses to be Silenced with “18+”

"Fuck the Scene, I'm The Queen!" Last Friday, "bimbocore" artist Scene Queen dropped a new single that I haven't been able to stop thinking about: "18+". The song addresses the state of the alt rock/emo scene in the most poignant-yet-accessible way. If you're a fan of this type of music--or grew up in "the scene"--don't skip this one. It's fun to listen to... and it's going to give you plenty to think about. If anyone deserves the title "Scene Queen", it is most definitely this 25-year-old artist, as proven by this witty new bop. Check out "18+" by Scene Queen on Spotify, below: https://open.spotify.com/album/6oveIE1VtjcawBs2UlM3Mn?si=MUdiUjBiQcCiVy3Bj2p-tw "18+" is a fast favorite. This song has the accessibility of a nursery rhyme, but also has the...

At-Risk Youth Explores The Highs And Lows Of Love In “Lysander”

Colorado Springs-based trio At-Risk Youth has released its latest single, "Lysander." Following their well-received hit "Sweet Demon," this heartfelt love song is sure to captivate fans with its raw emotion and relatable lyrics. Lead vocalist and guitarist Mark K. Foreman shared his thoughts on the new single, stating, "Fundamentally, 'Lysander' is a love song, and at the center is the concept that love is a gamble. It requires taking the plunge, taking a risk, and anteing up. And like all gambles, it can work out well or poorly. But love is more than that; it's not just money on the line, but your heart. It can require sacrificing time and pride, and it can leave you desperate, but in the end, it's worth it. It has to be." Foreman wrote "Lysander" while jamming with a band he w...
