The Morning Yells
http://themorningyells.com/
The Morning Yells is a new Los Angeles-based band consisting of siblings Phil & Laura Stancil (guitar, vocals / bass, vocals), Trevor Smith (guitar, vocals), Jacob Boll (Keyboards, Guitar), and Curran McDowell (Drums, Percussion). Blending Heartland Rock, Americana, Power Pop, and Psychedelia with ease, the group has a knack for writing songs that are familiar and new at once. Their 2017 debut EP, Proper Wilted, received praise for its harmonies, songcraft, and nods to classic folk. Comparisons to Big Star, The War on Drugs, Tom Petty, and Fleetwood Mac are common mentions at their live show.

Gordon Keepers
http://www.gordonkeepers.com/
By now, Portland OR-based singer-songwriter Gordon Keepers is a veteran of the music scene. After a stint in old-time ensemble Water Tower, Keepers sang, wrote songs, and played guitar in the punk-flecked pop band Levon’s Helmet—a project that earned generous amounts of local praise despite never fully penetrating the nice-shoes-and-artisanal-IPA pocket of the Portland music scene.
Keepers’ first solo record, Pretty Little City, is a leaner take on the aesthetic developed in Levon’s Helmet. Its 10 tracks are more measured and mid-tempo; the cultural commentary here is dryer and more nuanced than the brash adolescent takedowns of Levon’s Helmet songs “Condos” and “One Little Piggy”. This thematic maturity is matched by thicker and more diverse sounds—opening track and album highlight “Romeo” sounds like The River-era Bruce Springsteen crossed with The Cars, and it’s an effective sonic overview of the album.
Skunk Manhattan
