Modern Time Machine’s haunting, bittersweet melodies recall elements of dream pop, new wave, and space rock, with “nuanced playing and killer hooks” (LA Times). Reverb-drenched vocal harmonies adorn the band's feedback-laced love songs which have drawn comparisons to M83, Slowdive and Sonic Youth. 

The band's music has been heard from the radio airwaves of LA’s KROQ 106.7FM to nationally on The Eric Andre Show, where they performed with string arrangements by Chanda Dancy.

In July of 2024, Deadline premiered Modern Time Machines' time-travel themed video, "Ghost Signs" featuring Charles Phoenix, with KCRW praising it as "garace sci-fi... its mystical psych and jazz drum-fill texture win the day." The band has also scored the forthcoming feature-length documentary about Howard The Duck for Anchor Bay Entertainment.  

Modern Time Machine's single "Ornamental," a songwriting collab w/ the late 2x Grammy-winning songwriting legend Allee Willis ("September" & the Friends theme song), drops today.

ZARA LARSSON ANNOUNCES 2026 NORTH AMERICAN TOUR

ZARA LARSSON ANNOUNCES 2026 NORTH AMERICAN MIDNIGHT SUN HEADLINING TOUR GENERAL ONSALE BEGINS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 5 NEW ALBUM MIDNIGHT SUN SET FOR RELEASE ON SEPTEMBER 26, 2025 NEW SINGLE “CRUSH” OUT NOW - WATCH VIDEO HERE (LOS ANGELES, CA - SEPTEMBER 2, 2025) Today, multiplatinum chart–topping global pop powerhouse Zara Larsson announces her North American Midnight Sun Tour for 2026. The 30 date trek is set to kick off on February 28, 2026 in Portland, OR at the Crystal Ballroom and will take Zara across the US and Canada, including stops in San Francisco, Chicago, Detroit, Toronto, Boston, Philadelphia, Atlanta and more. Hitting Los Angeles, CA on March 4 at The Wiltern and Brooklyn, NY on March 26 at the Brooklyn Paramount, the tour will wrap on April 12 in Houston, TX at the House of Blues. Pop artist Amelia Moore will join her on all North American headline dates. Tickets will be available starting with an artist presale at 10am local time tomorrow, September 3. A Spotify presale will launch on September 4 at 10am local time, followed by the general onsale beginning Friday, September 5 starting at 10am local time on www.zaralarssonofficial.com. Currently on tour with Tate McRae across North America, Zara Larsson is set to perform at New York, NY’s Madison Square Garden this week on September 3 and 4, and Los Angeles, CA’s The Forum on September 26 and 27. On October 28, she will kick off a European headlining tour, before hitting the road in February 2026 alongside OneRepublic in Australia and New Zealand. See her global touring itinerary below, including the newly announced North American headline dates. All is in support of Zara Larsson’s new album Midnight Sun, set for release on September 26 via Sommer House / Epic Records. Created over the last year with frequent collaborator MNEK, alongside producers Margo XS and Zhone, as well as songwriter Helena Gao—the album is a true tour-de-force. Go HERE to pre-order, and pre-add/save the album, which is available alongside an exclusive run of merchandise and physical products, including limited edition signed CDs and vinyl variants. Just two weeks ago, Zara unleashed the album’s latest buzzing single, “Crush.” Out of the gate, the song was most-added at Top 40/Pop radio in the US. Last week, the pop star shared the dynamic video for the song, directed by Grant James Thomas. Watch HERE. “Crush” follows the album’s transcendent title track, “Midnight Sun,” which has penetrated the culture with virality all summer thanks to the song’s Charlotte Rutherford-directed, Y2K-inspired music video and Zara’s own vocal prowess on the track. Zara kicked off the Midnight Sun era with the confident and rowdy “Pretty Ugly” and its gloriously messy music video, also directed by Charlotte Rutherford and choreographed by Zoi Tatopoulos. Fittingly, the music video is nominated for an MTV Video Music Award for “Best Choreography.” All three singles are unapologetically unfiltered, just like Midnight Sun, the album. The 10-track set ripples with confidence as its storytelling bursts with truth and vulnerability, plumbing the depth and growth of Zara’s artistry and journey over nearly 20 years in the public eye. It is unafraid to show all sides of the 27-year-old: lovestruck, wistful, ambitious, cocky, flippant, and uncertain, often in the same breath. With more to come, the never ending Midnight Sun continues. Get ready. Zara Larsson 2025-2026 live dates: September 3, 2025 - New York, NY - Madison Square Garden * September 4, 2025 - New York, NY - Madison Square Garden * September 6, 2025 - Philadelphia, PA - Wells Fargo Center * September 9, 2025 - Atlanta, GA - State Farm Arena * September 11, 2025 - Nashville, TN - Bridgestone Arena * September 13, 2025 - Orlando, FL - Kia Center * September 14, 2025 - Orlando, FL - Kia Center * September 16, 2025 - Austin, TX - Moody Center * September 18, 2025 - Dallas, TX - American Airlines Center * September 20, 2025 - Denver, CO - Ball Arena * September 24, 2025 - San Francisco, CA - Chase Center * September 26, 2025 - Los Angeles, CA - Kia Forum * September 27, 2025 - Los Angeles, CA - Kia Forum *   October 28, 2025 - Munich, Germany - Zenith  October 30, 2025 - Vienna, Austria - Gasometer October 31, 2025 – Berlin, Germany - Tempodrom November 2, 2025 – Antwerp, Belgium - Lotto Arena November 3, 2025 – Paris, France - Salle Pleyel November 5, 2025 – London, UK – OVO Arena Wembley November 7, 2025 – Dublin, Ireland - 3Arena  November 9, 2025 - Manchester, UK – O2 Victoria Warehouse November 11, 2025 – Dusseldorf, Germany – Mitsubishi Electric Halle November 12, 2025 – Amsterdam, The Netherlands - Ziggo Dome November 16, 2025 – Riga, Latvia - Xiaomi Arena November 18, 2025 - Copenhagen, Denmark - Royal Arena November 19, 2025 – Malmo, Sweden - Malmö Arena November 21, 2025 – Oslo, Norway - Unity Arena November 22, 2025 – Gothenburg, Sweden - Scandinavium  November 26, 2025 – Helsinki, Finland - Ice Hall November 28, 2025 – Stockholm, Sweden, Avicii Arena   February 4, 2026 - Auckland, NZ - Spark Arena ^ February 6, 2026 - Sydney, Australia - Qudos Bank Arena ^ February 11, 2026 - Gold Coast, Australia - HOTA Outdoor Stage ^ February 12, 2026 - Brisbane, Australia - Riverstage ^ February 13, 2026 - Melbourne, Australia - Sidney Myer Music Bowl ^ February 18, 2026 - Perth, Australia - RAC Arena ^ February 28, 2026 – Portland, OR – Crystal Ballroom + March 1, 2026 – Seattle, WA – Showbox SoDo + March 3, 2026 – Oakland, CA – Fox Theater + March 4, 2026 – Los Angeles, CA – The Wiltern + March 7, 2026 – Anaheim, CA – HOB Anaheim + March 8, 2026 – Phoenix, AZ – The Van Buren + March 10, 2026 – Salt Lake City, UT – The Depot + March 11, 2026 – Denver, CO – Summit Music Hall + March 13, 2026 – Minneapolis, MN – The Fillmore Minneapolis + March 14, 2026 – Milwaukee, WI – The Rave/Eagles Club + March 15, 2026 – Chicago, IL – Riviera Theatre + March 17, 2026 – Detroit, MI – Majestic Theatre + March 18, 2026 – Indianapolis, IN – Egyptian Room at Old National Centre + March 20, 2026 – Cleveland, OH – Agora Theatre and Ballroom + March 21, 2026 – Columbus, OH – KEMBA Live! + March 22, 2026 – Pittsburgh, PA – Stage AE + March 24, 2026 – Toronto, ON – History + March 26, 2026 – Brooklyn, NY – Brooklyn Paramount + March 28, 2026 – Boston, MA – HOB Boston – Music Hall + March 30, 2026 – Philadelphia, PA – The Fillmore Philadelphia + March 31, 2026 – Washington, DC – The Anthem + April 1, 2026 – Charlotte, NC – The Fillmore Charlotte + April 3, 2026 – Raleigh, NC – The Ritz + April 4, 2026 – Nashville, TN – Marathon Music Works + April 5, 2026 – Atlanta, GA – Tabernacle + April 7, 2026 – Ft.

Chatterton return with new EP, share new single & video "Blouse"

CHATTERTON RETURN WITH “BLOUSE” WATCH THE OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO OXNARD, CA DUO ANNOUNCE NEW EP, TINY EMPIRE, ARRIVING SEPTEMBER 19 VIA 7TH HEAVEN  SUPPORTING COMA CINEMA AT THE MORROCCAN LOUNGE  IN LOS ANGELES, CA, THIS SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6

Photo Credit: Madison Quinn “[Fields Of This] is brash yet diffident. From the lo-fi romance of “Pretty Things” to the testy ’90s emo of “Lakewood,” Chatterton are all mood and momentum.” - PITCHFORK “Dreamy indie rock a la Duster/Sparklehorse with interesting, dynamic shifts and subtle hooks to keep things moving along.” - BANDCAMP DAILY “I’m just going to come out and say “this sounds like Pavement crossed with Modest Mouse” and add “in the best possible way.” - STEVEN HYDEN, UPROXX “Brock Pierce and Logan Scrivner really know how to make music together.“ - AMERICAN SONGWRITER Oxnard, CA indie rock duo Chatterton are excited to announce their new EP, Tiny Empire, arriving September 19, 2025, via 7th Heaven. Lead single and closing track of the EP “Blouse” is out now, with crescendoing bossa nova-inspired instrumentals and shimmering vocals. Along with an official music video, “Blouse” waltzes its listener with biting lyricism and saultering brass solos.  "“This song [Blouse] was the last one we recorded for the EP. It started as something I was absentmindedly strumming between sessions," bandleader Brock Pierce explains. "Logan really liked it so we spent some time working on it before eventually shelving the idea. It wasn’t until the final few sessions that we decided, on impulse, to finish it for the EP. We even cut a song to make room for it. I’m glad it worked out that way." "I remember the demo was just the line, ‘you trip on hollow earth, hahaha,’ repeated over and over. A few days earlier someone at a bar talked my ear off about their theory that the earth was hollow, mixed with a bunch of other ideas about the bible and the world, so I think that concept was still stuck in my head. I wanted the lyrics to sound like an argument, and Lily’s added vocals rounded that idea out really well.” LISTEN TO “BLOUSE” WATCH “BLOUSE” PRE-ORDER TINY EMPIRE Today’s track arrives with an official music video, featuring bandleaders Brock Pierce and Logan Scrivner performing “Blouse” at a florist and their subsequent floral-filled journey and fight. Filmed around suburban Southern California strip malls and parks, the video for the single captures Chatterton’s ability to infuse levity into emotional entanglements.  Last year, Chatterton released their sophomore album, Fields of This, which was met with critical acclaim from Pitchfork, UPROXX, Bandcamp Daily, and more. A towering collection of songs, the record was a culmination of years of writing and recording, exploring various influences through airtight melodies and whirling guitars. In the words of Nina Corcoran for Pitchfork, “[Fields Of This] is brash yet diffident. From the lo-fi romance of “Pretty Things” to the testy ’90s emo of “Lakewood,” Chatterton are all mood and momentum.”

A fixture of Southern California’s indie scene, Chatterton has played shows with julie, Slow Hollows, Sign Crushes Motorist, Midrift and more. Last year, the band embarked on a sprawling North American tour, This weekend, the band will support Coma Cinema at LA’s Moroccan Lounge with Julie F The Rulies.

Janet Devlin Announces Release of Deluxe Album 'Not My First Emotional Rodeo' out on September 26th!

Announces Release of Deluxe Album Not My First Emotional Rodeo, out on September 26th  Eight brand new recordings added to her debut country release Emotional Rodeo including a stripped-back reimagining of the Kenny Rogers’ classic ‘The Gambler’ Janet Devlin - ‘Not My First Emotional Rodeo’ SEPTEMBER 2, 2025 (London, UK) -- Irish singer-songwriter Janet Devlin continues to surprise and captivate with her upcoming release of Not My First Emotional Rodeo - a deluxe edition of her critically acclaimed album Emotional Rodeo (out on September 26, 2025 via OK!Good Records). Building on the original’s success which topped the iTunes Country Chart and garnered widespread radio support and glowing press, the expanded collection further secures Devlin’s reputation as one of the most distinctive voices in the UK country and Americana scene.  On September 26th, Devlin will unveil a collection of bonus tracks that showcases her wide-ranging take on classic country with a modern edge. From the upbeat swagger of her next single “Candy” to the reflective mid-tempo groove of “If He Wanted To He Would,” each song adds a new texture to the record. The darker, Western-inspired tension of “Plastic Pistol” sits in striking contrast to the playful bite of “Psycho Ex” the wistful “Hooked” and, of course, her flyaway hit single “Houston” - recently added to the BBC Radio 2 playlist. The deluxe album also includes a stirring rendition of the gospel standard “I’ll Fly Away,” recorded live at the iconic Blackbird Studio in Nashville as well as a stripped back, acoustic reimagining of Kenny Rogers’ “The Gambler.” Together, these additions expand the world of Emotional Rodeo and its country spirit. Of the deluxe album, Janet explains:  “When I left Nashville after doing 24 songs in three days for Emotional Rodeo, I knew I was going to have to do a deluxe! There was no way I was going to fit all my favorites onto one album alone and I definitely wasn’t going to let them stay on my computer collecting dust! I love the album listening experience, and I create my albums for those who do too. I want there to be a journey when you put it on - ups, downs and everything in-between. The downside of this was that I had to cut tracks I always thought would be on the original record. Now I could’ve made another album, but these songs felt very much a part of the same era of my life that the album was for. Plus, tracks like ‘Plastic Pistol’ and ‘If He Wanted To He Would’ HAD to see the light of day - not only because of how much I loved them, but my fans did too! They were very much a part of my set lists and people were already singing them back to me before I had even recorded them - I loved that so much. I’m so glad that I have a label who actively encourages me to put out music. Our visions aligned; we all knew this deluxe album was on the cards. As well as breathing new life into ‘Emotional Rodeo’ it allows me to showcase music of which I’m so very proud.” JANET DEVLIN - "Houston" Listen: https://lnk.to/JD_Houston  As a final highlight, Janet included her heartfelt reinterpretation of Kenny Rogers’ timeless classic, “The Gambler.” The song was recorded live at George Ezra’s Hotel Québec Recording Studio in Hertford, with Devlin’s version offering a raw, intimate take on the country classic. By stripping away the familiar upbeat arrangement and replacing it with a sparse backdrop of acoustic guitar, her signature ethereal vocals, and the addition of a male counterpart in the second half, the result is a tender, slow-burning ballad that breathes new life into the original and in turn positions it as the focus track of the deluxe release. Janet says of the track: “‘The Gambler’ has always been one of my all-time favorite country songs. I remember hearing it when I was around five years old. To me it was better than any story book I’d ever read. It was also a favorite with everyone in my family. From my grandfather singing it whilst washing the dishes, to me singing it to my pony as we rode around the hills of home. As an adult at home on my own, I’d always pick up a guitar and sing it; but I’d never sing it publicly. I always wanted to save it for a special occasion. So, when I got asked to perform a cover of my choice on the Scott Mills Breakfast Show earlier this year, I knew exactly what to play!” After supporting country star Corey Kent in February, Devlin kicked festival season off in March with performances at the iconic C2C (Country to Country) festival in Belfast, London, and Berlin. As anticipation builds for the release of Not My First Emotional Rodeo, she brought her signature fearless spirit to The Long Road Festival in Leicestershire on August 22nd and 23rd, followed by a show-stopping headline slot at The British Country Music Festival in Blackpool on Sunday, August 31st. Rounding out her live run, she will take center stage for an unmissable headline show at Colours, Hoxton, on Thursday, October 16th, promising a special night of electrifying new music.  Released in November 2024, Emotional Rodeo was a major success, cementing Janet’s prominent place in the country-rock scene. The album reached #1 on the iTunes Country Chart, #4 on the UK Official Country Artists Albums Chart, #5 on the UK Official Indie Breakers Chart, and #21 on the UK Official Independent Albums Chart. Janet appeared for a session on The Scott Mills Radio 2 Breakfast Show ahead of C2C Festival and has received praise from the likes of actor/musician Russell Crowe, who previously took her on tour and continues to applaud her talent – comparing her to Stevie Nicks and admiring her ability to be both "ethereal" and "very direct" on stage. Her singles also saw strong chart success, reaching #31 in the Big Top 40, #15 in the UK iTunes Charts, and #4 in the iTunes Country Charts, in addition to national radio play on Capital & Heart, Absolute Country, New To 2 with Scott Mills, placements on the BBC Core playlist and over 110 regional radio playlists. Singles “Red Flag” and “Best Life” landed coveted month-long positions on the BBC Radio 2 B List Playlist, the latter peaking at #38 in the UK Radio Monitor Airplay Top 100. The album also saw press coverage in the likes of Daily Express, Daily Mirror, Daily Mail, The Sun, OK!, Record Collector, The Irish Post, The Irish News, Wonderland, CelebMix, ATC, VIP Magazine, and Record of the Day. Other notable recognitions include a special appearance on The Late Late Show Country Music Special (the world’s longest running live chat show), an interview with Ray D’Arcy on RTE1 and the “Red Flag” music video featured on Sunday Brunch.
