We had the pleasure of interviewing The Wrecks over Zoom video.

The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig which defines made up words for indescribable emotions classifies the neologism “sonder” as the “profound feeling of realizing that everyone, including strangers passing in the street, has a life as complex as one’s own." The Wreck's vocalist/producer Nick Anderson landed on "Sonder" as the title of their sophomore album, which is out now via Big Noise Music Group.

The band’s most recent singles, the sparkling post-breakup anthem “Lone Survivor” and liberating alt-rock track “I Love This Part,” showcase that they’ve fully honed-in on and embraced their characteristic genre bending alt-rock, as well as having evolved and matured their sounds for this triumphal venture of a second album. Anderson says that experimenting with minor keys and calculated lyrics.

On Sonder, there’s not only their distinctive witty, frantic genre-bending tracks (“Sonder,” “Don’t Be Scared,” “Unholy,” “Ugly Side”), but also their take on mesmerizing alt-rock love/loss ballads (“Where Are You Now?,” “Dystopia,” “Unrequited,” “No Place I’d Rather Be,” “Normal”).

Sonder follows the release of the band’s 2016 debut EP We Are The Wrecks (their first single “Favorite Liar” currently has 36 million+ streams on Spotify), their 2018 Panic Vertigo EP, their 2020 Static EP as well as their 2020 debut LP Infinitely Ordinary (58 million+ streams on Spotify).
 
The Wrecks continue to rack up the massive fan base that has already given their top five singles on Spotify over 80 million listens. Poised for a wide-open road ahead of them, Nick Anderson and The Wrecks continue to charge into the limelight. Not too shabby for a kid from Wellsville, just two hours south of nowhere. 
 
The Wrecks begun as vocalist/producer Nick Anderson’s sole endeavor and has since been rounded out by Aaron Kelley (bass), Nick “Schmizz” Schmidt (guitar) and Billy Nally (drums). The Wrecks also collaborated on a select number of tracks off Sonder with producers Westen Weiss (Meek Mill, Camila Cabello, Post Malone) and Dillon Deskin (Flo Rida, Will Sparks, Different Heaven, Myrne) to expand their sound.

Malia Civetz - End Of The Road

A FUN COVER/RE-IMAGINATION OF ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS BY NEW FOUND GLORY FEATURING THE AMAZING MAIYA SYKES ON VOCALS.

Head On Collision (SLOANE COVER)

Love it when you talk like that,
When you need something
Breathe your words down my back
Tattoo chills on my skin 
Love it when you talk like that
When you need something
You ain’t even have to ask
You could take it from me



Wrap your hands around my neck
Tell me I’m your favorite
Let me know that I belong to you
Light me like ya cigarette
Smoke it til there’s nothing left
Show me everything you want to do



It’s written in your eyes it’s all I see
Come and taste the fire you started in me
Let me be your darkest fantasy
Know you want it like that, like that, like that, like that, like that
Feels so good to be bad yeah

(Drop)

Feel your thoughts on my tongue
Taste your emotions
Take the life from my lungs
Drown in your ocean
Use me up until I’m numb
you have my devotion
Sacrifice for your love
I’m begging you just

Wrap your hands around my neck
Tell me I’m your favorite
Let me know that I belong to you
Light me like ya cigarette
Smoke it til there’s nothing left
Show me everything you want to do


It’s written in your eyes it’s all I see
Come and taste the fire you started in me
Let me be your darkest fantasy
Know you want it like that, like that, like that, like that, like that
Feels so good to be bad yeah

It’s written in your eyes it’s all I see
Come and taste the fire you started in me
Let me be your darkest fantasy
Know you want it like that, like that, like that, like that, like that
Feels so good to be bad yeah

GOOD TO BE BAD

Broke Boy (Stripped)

Did my own version of this beautiful Sasha Sloan song. Really connected with the lyrics and am constantly striving to make the most of each day while I am able to live and create.

SLOANE 'Smiling When I Die Cover'

​​We had the opportunity to interview Leon of Athens on Zoom with video!
​​
​​Please share while we are #togetherathome ​🏠​
​​
​​"London based indie-pop star Leon of Athens channels the flamboyant beauty of Sufjan Stevens and Francis & the Lights, alongside a similar widescreen pop sensibility as Lauv and MARINA, who he has both supported. His album Xenos (EMI/Universal) is a beautiful, thoughtful piece of work. It showcases just why he has become a big live draw across Europe and his rising profile in the USA where he has been confirmed to appear at SXSW, Okeechobee, Firefly Music Festival, Summerfest and Shaky Knees. The album follows the highly acclaimed release of his debut album Global, championed by the likes of The Guardian, NME, Q, New York Times and more. It is produced by David Kosten (Bat For Lashes, Everything Everything) and is informed lyrically by the refugee crisis, the rise of the far-right in Europe and the US, but also personal upheavals: fractured relationships, lost faith, youth, freedom, and death.” - Spotify 
​​
​​PRAISE FOR LEON OF ATHENS
​​“Brainy pop inspired by Bernardo Bertolucci, inflected with electronic, folk and other flavours” – The Guardian
​​“Leon of Athens has mastered the art of electronica-tickled, horn-smattered, melodic pop.” – NME
​​“The Greek god of indie-pop” – Wonderland
​​“In this place where tragedy was invented, the song was joyful and sadly cathartic.” – New York Times
