Los Angeles alternative band Charming Liars are continuing their breakout year in 2019 with the release of a 4-track acoustic EP, Bare Bones and a run of West Coast headlining dates. The band will return to Europe in August for a tour with The Faim and then head back to the states for an extended run as direct support for Angels & Airwaves (here you can find all upcoming dates).

About Bare Bones Karnig Manoukian, guitar player and producer, says: "The songwriting process has always been an integral part of our music creation and laying out these songs in this simpler, more organic form allows the song, lyrics and melodies to really shine. This is something that we will definitely continue to do in the future and is something that really excites us. It brings us back to these songs that we lived with for months and allows us to rejuvenate and recreate."

Rising artist Amy Guess, from Las Vegas, NV, is releasing alluring new single, Lay Low. With an electric guitar that cuts deep into the chorus, Guess presents a powerful vocal lead relaying the story of a much-needed break from reality.

Lay Low describes the multifaceted emotions that come with stepping away from a situation for the sake of your own mental health: "I wrote most of this song pacing around my living room. As years go by, you get a better compass for who you want to spend your time around because life isn't long enough to spread yourself thin with people you don't truly have a passion for being with," explains Guess. "This song is about taking a stepping away from the wrong relationships to have more time for the right ones."

Produced and co-written by Scott Chesak (Panic! At The Disco, Weezer) with additional production by JT Daly (K.Flay), Lay Low offers strong and emotive vocals, relatable lyrics, and catchy melodic deliverances resulting in a cathartic alt-pop track.

Lay Low is the second single off of Amy Guess' upcoming EP, set for release later this year. Download and stream the track across all digital media platforms worldwide, and check Amy's music on Spotify.

Ambitious Austrian alt-rock trio HUNGER, have released their new track, My Shirt Your Dress. The song is the second single off of their forthcoming record, Mosaik.

With a chilled melancholic sound, HUNGER stray from their trademark synth-based tracks and embrace a moody, dark pop, soundscape.

"The song is about the big 'what-if' love of your life," the band explains. "We all have it. We all know it. You might have this one person you never asked on a date although you felt a very strong connection with, or might have met the better half of your life, but for some reason it just didn't work out. Sometimes love just never really gets the chance."

Produced by the band's own Johannes Herbst, My Shirt Your Dress is now available to download and stream across all digital media platforms worldwide.

This is something different, but very interesting and highly enjoyable nonetheless. I'm speaking of Hero The Band's new single Back To Myself, a modern-day funk rock anthem released a few days ago via Republic Records.

"We have been around music all of our lives, and we want to make music for the rest of our lives." says Nick, the youngest member of the band from Atlanta, GA. Hero The Band's musical influences are Queen, Coldplay, Take 6, Boyz II Men, The Temptations, The Beatles, Elton John, Jimi Hendrix, Earth,Wind, and Fire, U2, Prince, and Lenny Kravitz. It is no surprise that the brothers play the bass and lead guitars, keys, and drums. "Because we write our own lyrics and musical sound, it allows us to express our real emotions and share ourselves with the world", says Jerramy. "We are not in a box, we don't have a lead singer. We are just a mixture of different genres of music, like Michael Jackson or Andre 3000,"Justin says.

As the band grows in musicianship and artistry, Hero The Band have been blessed with many phenomenal performance opportunities. The band has performed at such venues as the Masquerade, Phillip's Arena (National Anthem for the Hawks), and performed as the opening act for the legendary "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame" band, Mother's Finest.

Humans is the first single from The Faim's forthcoming debut album, State Of Mind, which will be released on Friday, September 13 via BMG.

The Faim came into existence as naturally as their music. The Australian group met while in high school in Perth, and the friends soon began penning their own songs, inspired by bands like Fall Out Boy, Panic! at the Disco and Metallica, and an array of musical influences, from indie rock to jazz, to pop-punk.

Humans was produced with Patrick Morrisey (Weezer, Pharrell, Hayley Kiyoko) and David Dahlquist (Aurora, Fletcher) in New York and Los Angeles, and includes a great balance of unique pop-rock sounds, rounded out with lush live band elements and a massive, resonant chorus.

"Humans is about embracing the unique qualities that make up who we are, from our individual character and personality traits, to our strengths and weaknesses. These diverse characteristics, and how they evolve throughout our lives, show us what it means to be human and how connected we all actually are," the band explains.

The genesis of September Mourning started in a dark New York basement, where a young girl discovered her father's old comic book collection and quickly became enraptured by the stories, especially the characters and arcs in the Batman series.

"'The Killing Joke' is still my favorite comic book" says band leader and creative driving force Emily Lazar (AKA September). The stories and characters helped turn Lazar into a life-long artist across several mediums –including ballet, story-telling, visual art, and music. She has combined those various talents into a living and breathing, graphic-novel-come-to-life with her band of Reapers in September Mourning. With the release of their new single and video Unholy, they continue to forge ahead with their aural and visual extravaganza.

Unholy was produced by Sahaj Ticotin (Motley Crue The Dirt Soundtrack, Starset, Sevendust, MEYTAL) and Nick Scott (Asking Alexandria, Bless the Fall, I See Stars), with mixing by Chris Lord-Alge (Linkin Park, Gren Day, Of Mice and Men). The song's scorching guitar riffs and sing-song chorus breakdowns tell a tale of a love so strong that it is fatally addicting. Unholy raises the band's artistry to a new level and will make for an anthemic addition to an already compelling live show. The band is currently on tour with Flaw before seguing to the Smile Empty Soul tour in late August.

As Strange As Angels -the passion project of former Murder FM front man Norman Matthew- have released a new single and video Miracle as a follow up to their Top 40 Active Rock track Mirror Mirror (from last April's EP of the same name).

The song was co-written and produced by Sahaj Ticotin (Ra, Motley Cure, Starset, Sevendust, Meytal).

Norman says of Miracle: "Coming off the success of Mirror Mirror, the bar has been set and the pressure is high for the forthcoming single and video Miracle. Up to this point, Mirror Mirror was by far, the biggest evolution for me musically, lyrically, melodically and spiritually. I connected my soul to the song in ways I never thought I could. Miracle as a song, has a heavy and dark elegance to it. Video director Michael Carter and I wanted to bring the story and vibe of the song to life. Miracle taps into my own feelings of love -of searching for and waiting on my Miracle partner to arrive.

Miracle is an Alternative Rock anthem with a soul, addictive and emotional like everything Mr. Ticotin is involved in.

American indie pop rockers Royal Teeth released their sophomore album Hard Luck at the end of last month, via Round Hill Records. The record marks the band's long overdue comeback to indie rock, with a progression in their sound that exudes energy and conviction.

No stranger to the ups and downs of the music industry, they're signed to their third label in just over six years. "There were days where I just accepted that this was probably going to be over soon," vocalist Gary Larsen recalls. "Something finally switched inside of me. I decided that if we are going down, then we are going down swinging."

Feeling inspired to create new songs with a new fresh sound, the quartet whole-heartedly decided it was worth a return to the music scene.

Never Gonna Quit, the first single, serves as a mission statement for the album, boasting loudly the ability to take a shot to the chin and continue pushing forward. Thrashing, punk-inspired The Best takes on a tongue-in-cheek response to the cutthroat nature of the industry, and Rivalry shows a deep seeded desire for both self-discovery and acceptance, stating "I just want to feel like I belong to myself, to anyone."

"It is easy for me to lose confidence in myself," Gary states. "This line of work can be difficult. It requires you to be vulnerable and put yourself out there to be judged by others. It's hard to get used to. We are using this album as a platform to face our fears, and to focus on the love we find through the music we create and those who connect along the way. I hope that this album gives strength to anyone who has a hard time putting themselves out there for the world to see."
