FORT NOT - THE CLUB IS OPEN
Fort Not are proud to announce their second LP The Club Is Open. Despite they sometimes flesh-out their sound a bit, the DIY charm is there on every track. "In the end we just wanted to make a record filled with luscious indie-songs about lost love, new love, no love, loveless love and death". Fort Not is a Gothenburg based band, emerged out of the fumes of gin and tonic during a west coast summer night. The band, consisting of two friends, Fredrik and Robert, is a musically odd couple that found common ground in catchy pop songs and their equal love for Pavement.

HOLY TUNICS - BUTTER DISH
Holy Tunics is a Brooklyn, NY rock n' roll / power pop band started in late 2014, currently featuring drummer Brian Alvarez, bassist/vocalist Matt Billington, guitarist Bryan Thornton, and lead vocalist/guitarist Nick Rogers. Their debut EP Hot to Trot was released Dec. 2016 (GP Stripes). The Big Takeover wrote: "Although several tunes date to 2015's rougher-recorded Notes From Captivity Pt. 2, Holy Tunics have streamlined them with energetic, smoother yet punchy production and playing that reinforces their hooky guitarpop heroics." In 2017 Holy Tunics split a single with Hamish Kilgour (Mad Scene, The Clean) via GP Stripes, opened for Teenage Fanclub and Gin Blossoms locally and recorded their first full length album, that was released in April 20th, 2018, via Spain's Meritorio Records.

HOLY TUNICS - HIT PARADE LEMONADE SUPERSONIC SPREE

Over the past couple of years, Holy Tunics have opened for Teenage Fanclub and Gin Blossoms locally, recorded their debut full length LP Butter Dish, released April 2018 by Meritorio Records, and split a single with Hamish Kilgour (The Mad Scene, The Clean) via GP Stripes.

MAUREENS, THE - SOMETHING IN THE AIR
The Maureens debuted in 2013 with a self-titled album that contained a distinct mixture of sixties nostalgia and nineties era indiepop. Sounds from The Beach Boys, The Posies and Big Star were fused together in catchy, energetic and uplifting pop songs. In the spring of 2015 the Maureens recorded their second album called 'Bang the Drum' and released it in September of the same year. The songs on this album proved to be more personal, powerful and upfront, with the spirit of bands like Johan, Teenage Fanclub and Jayhawks added to the already rich mixture that defines The Maureens. Again this album was received well, with many great reviews and some high rankings on 'Favourite album for 2015' lists. Currently operating as a four-piece band, The Maureens are busy as always, writing and performing their exciting and melodic alternative pop songs and their third album 'Something in the Air' released by Meritorio Records.

ROVES, THE - ALL THOSE FREAKS
Chief songwriter James Wing along with his little brother Tom and a hard grafted rhythm section of Luke Evans and Brendan Monahan are releasing their second album "All Those Freaks" on Meritorio Records (April 12th). Their story is somewhat murky and complicated as how this 4 piece came together, their studio personnel are always interchanging but one thing that remains constant is the 4 gentlemen that grace a local stage every fortnight or so in the city in which they were born (North London). Naturally the shared DNA plays a big part in the identity in the group. The Wing brothers fell for rock and roll music at a very young age but its the family and childhood memories that influences the material more than ever. A hark back to the days of innocence.

SEAMS, THE - ANOTHER SIDE OF THE SEAMS
Bright janglepop with dreamy pop overtones on this Canadian band's gorgeous second album. THE SEAMS blend influences of potent, straight-forward guitar bands from the 60's - 90's. With their unabashed love of structure and melody, their collective strengths shine through the songs they create. Their second album "Another Side of the Seams" is a raw introduction to their electric side. The songs bring to mind a young REM or Real Estate. The band's core songwriting duo of Kyle Connolly (WISH, Fake Palms) and Jonathan Rogers (Elsa) have departed from the reverb soaked melancholy of their previous projects and have immersed themselves in a brighter beat.

WURLD SERIES - WHAT'S GROWING
What's Growing is the second album by Wurld Series, an indie rock band from Christchurch, New Zealand. Christchurch is a city home to a strong DIY music ethic, traceable back to the beginning of labels such as Flying Nun and Xpressway. Wurld Series have been at the forefront of a continuation of this approach since the mid-2010's, and are known locally for their skewed pop sensibility and lo-fi production aesthetic. "The New Zealand indie rock band's thoughtful, witty, and brief songs pit surrealism against the malaise of workaday life." - Pitchfork 7.1
