Erthlings: “Bridges”

By: Jack Anderson

A few years back, four girls met at music school and began composing together by age nine. Now at sixteen, this Sydney group has finally shared their indie pop sound as Erthlings, and they’re quickly gaining ground. Yes, they’re young, but they’re already seasoned veterans of songwriting with their fair share of life experiences and observations about the world around them.

These adolescent Australians have been touring in support of fellow KUTX favorite G Flip, but only after releasing their debut studio single. It’s only the beginning for Erthlings and we’re hoping for world domination in the near future. For now you can make your Friday extra fresh with Erthlings’ inaugural track, “Bridges”!

Danny Malone: “Leaves”

Lola Bates: “Madonna Gold”

Dark, broody, and effusing forest witch energy, LA’s Lola Bates lays it all out on the table in her debut album Love and Power.

Gran Moreno: “Aztlán” [Live In Studio 1A]

KUTX’s Artist of the Month Program is powered by Austin FC Raised in Mexico and newly transplanted to Austin, brothers Ricardo and Christian Rodríguez craft songs that feel like sonic mirages—equal parts groove, grit, and atmosphere. Their music lives at the intersection of distortion and introspection, where hypnotic riffs, heavy rhythms, and emotionally charged melodies […]

Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol: “Peaches”

It’s fuzzy, it’s doomy, and it’s relentless. The new single from Austin “doom-woppers” Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol keeps in stride with the group’s brand of metal-meets-melodic hard rock, giving you a two-and-a-half-minute riff bomb of what’s in store for their upcoming album Ca$h Grab, out later this year. The band is out headlining a packed […]

Mean Jolene: “Private Plane”

The new single from Ausitn power-pop outfit Mean Jolene has it all: beautifully harmonized gang vocals with a 1960’s shimmer, 90’s female rock guitar hooks and grit, and an earnest look at the double-edged sword of escapism: a necessity for self-preservation pocked with a compulsion towards innocent complacency. And there’s something about the energy of […]
