NYC band Ice Balloons are consistently dubbed as a super group. To an extent that may be true but the group are first and foremost friends who have come together to create art with absolute freedom and room to explore. Consisting of Sean Kennerly of Samiam, TV On The Radio’s Kyp Malone, Sean Powell of Fuckemos, Midnight Masses’ Giselle Reiber, B.A. Miale, Rob Bryn of Wild Yaks and Dan Scinta, their music is a collage of riotous punk, New York no wave, garage rock and noise all rolled up into one event of a listen. To call it energetic would be an understatement and in terms of their stage show, well let’s just say that it is probably one of the liveliest performances one could see…ever! Wilder than wild, the ‘common fly’ charges about on stage singing vocals and at some point in the show there may even be sparks popping and flying about on his body.
Having flown the flag for NYC rock & roll for 12 years now, The Baby Shakes released their third studio album 'Turn It Up' earlier this month.

Keeping it stripped and raw with the meat and potatoes of punk, the tune is perfect for a day time drive with the top down.
Breakups are as commonplace as breathing air but lets face it, sometimes you still need a soundtrack to help you deal with the emotional roller coaster that comes with it.

Four songs in total, the group have delivered an electric wave of indie pop so vibrant that it almost makes ended relationships something to look forward to.

Last year NYC-based songstress Julietta dropped her highly impressive 'Conquest' EP, a seven song collection of perfectly polished electronic pop that included two remixes by Super Duper and Body Language. From that point it was evident that this New Yorker wasn't just a pretty face but someone whose talent for singing and songwriting couldn't be denied.
NYC-based band Wilsen have announced the release of their new 'I Go Missing In My Sleep'. Scheduled to land April 28th on Kobalt/Dalliance Recordings, many of the tracks were created in the apartment of frontwoman Tamsin Wilson during the wee hours of the morning.
One of the songs featured on the upcoming LP is the tender and stunning track 'Heavy Steps'. A minimal and breezing indie folk package, Tasmin Wilson's angelic voice combined with gentle guitar strokes are the epitome of a graceful and beautiful tune.
