As the weather warms up and the days get longer, there’s nothing greater than chilling with great new music. As much as we love our Drake and Ari, it’s awesome to support talented indie artists who are flying under the radar (plus, you get to brag that you listened to them before they were cool). Wh...
6 Indie Bops For Every Summer Moment Annotated
1. JORDANN - “Business Solutions”
With a funky bassline and synths, "Business Solutions" is a nostalgic, warm track from Canadian bedroom pop artist JORDANN. Listen to it: cruising through the city with your windows down.
2. Black Honey - “I Don't Ever Wanna Love”
A Lana Del Rey-esque track that perfectly marries orchestral strings, rock influences, and stunning cotton candy-coated retro visuals. Listen to it: as you tan by the pool with your oversized sunglasses, dwelling on your past heartbreaks.
3. Better Oblivion Community Center - “Little Trouble”
This indie rock track is an outsider's anthem reminiscent of Mitski's "Townie". Expect to hear this one in an independent teen coming-of-age movie soon. Listen to it: as you raise hell with your misfit friends.
4. Honors - “Feel Better”
Trap-like drums and choir samples feature heavily in "Feel Better", a song about having the best times of your life when you have nothing. Listen to it: when you're pulling up to your hometown for the summer just as the sun goes down.
5. Sinéad Harnett - “Body”
"I'd rather be with you and be vulnerable," Harnett sings over a sultry, slinky instrumental. It's that classic R&B slow-jam sound that you've been missing. Listen to it: at midnight with your SO (preferably at your private black-sand beach).
6. Phoebe Bridgers - "Demi Moore"
"Demi Moore" is ethereal, atmospheric, and introspective, with gentle guitar and synths that are simultaneously calming and eerie. Listen to it: before the sun rises on the last day of summer.
