Summer School Slacker is a brash, youthful, exciting, and occasionally rude playlist that has no intention of following the rules. Full of a variety of rock sub-genres like pop punk, indie rock, skater punk, hard rock, these tracks turn that signature teen angst and energy into junkyard bottle rockets.

Passionate Indie Rock with compelling vocals, dynamic hooks, and a polished, Brit-influenced sound. With lyrics relating to isolation and getting lost in the modern age, Dramatic Lovers balance smooth pop songwriting and indie atmospheres.

Driving guitar melodies with dreamy vibes, confident punk beats, and an urgent danceability. Combined with confessional, sarcastic, and bleeding heart vocals, Versio Curs have an undeniable chemistry and balance that makes their debut album stand out.
