Coinciding with an 8-date nationwide tour this January, Berlin-via-Queensland musician J Mahon unveils today a new single/video “Gold States”. It follows his debut album Everything Has A Life, which was released last September.
It is a great track that exemplifies Mahon’s talent for crafting melodic indie rock with introspective and often self-reflective meanings. Lyrically, he explores themes of personal experiences, ruminating on the pains of young adulthood.

With a debut album titled Defamator arriving on May 12 via Taxi Gauche Records, Los Angeles-based musician Chloe Gallardo is giving us a new taster of what to expect — a dreamy and ethereal indie pop track “Bloodline” that showcases Chloe’s distinctive vocal style and introspective lyricism, touching on personal topics.
Elaborating on the track, Chloe shares: “Bloodline is about feeling like a gigantic disappointment to my family (hence the name). I wrote this song when I didn’t have a day job and I had just moved back home so I felt like I had really taken a step back in my life. I guess my goal for this song was to just convince them that I was trying my best in a set of unfortunate circumstances”.
