Britny Lobas: “You Can Have It” [PREMIERE]

By: Taylor Wallace

Austin’s Britny Lobas is a pop rock powerhouse. Originally a member of the pop rock group Corbella, Lobas broke out on her own. But her volume of output is the opposite of her volume of talent and vocal power, preserving her song coins like the Four of Pentacles and methodically doling out one banger after another, leaving fans in a regular stasis of antici…pation.

The Cleveland, Ohio native releases her new single “You Can Have It” this Friday. While this song leans more on the soul side of her sensibilities, her edge is not dulled, giving Amy Winehouse energy on a track about not throwing down with green-eyed monsters, but dropping them instead. They’re no good!


Lobas celebrates the release of “You Can Have It” this Saturday at Empire Control Room with Glass Mansions and Raycheal Winters

Restos: “No Cigar

Austin’s Restos turn close calls and near misses into an indie-rock anthem on “No Cigar.” With jangly guitars, a driving rhythm, and just the right amount of grit, the track captures the feeling of chasing something that’s always a little out of reach—and having a good time anyway.
