please take a moment to listen to 5LOKO, one of the greatest diy indie projects out there right now. i met t and raf through the beautiful magic of timing and the internet at the start of covid and had the honor of not only making two wonderful friends, but also getting to collaborate in the creation of some art to compliment their own work: making single cover art for them, working on one of my first two person portrait/lifestyle shoots with them, shooting & making posters for their shows (and also now cooking up an even bigger project??? stay tuned hehe). honestly, ever since we all met up together for the first time, ive just been on a mission to get them on the map…simply put: they are just too goated to fail. if you have any time today, please just listen to at least one song of theirs or their latest album New Beatles and let me know what songs resonate with u 🧚

from the minds of the chicago wunderkinds who went on to form deerest friends, sharp pins, lifeguard, post office winter, and other hallogallo/related-teen-indie-rock-brilliance came this delightful project
wonderfully meshes together eras of indie rock/pop to create something so unique and magical, haven’t stopped thinking about it for a while
this is one of those records that gets people to get their friends together to start their own band

this album isn’t completely unknown, but i definitely never hear enough people talk about it. every single time i’ve told someone to listen to this album, they’ve come back with nothing short of love for it. i took a friend to see flyte, and he only knew one of their songs - he left saying, “THAT’S how i want to be as a musician. that stage presence, songwriting, etc.” - a big fan was born that night lol. i would literally show this band and this album to every individual person in the world if it meant it would get the appreciation it deserved.

I woke up one morning in September to my boyfriend getting a call from the founders of Rough Trade Records (who are responsible for some of my all time favorite artist debuts including The Sundays and The Strokes). They were responding to a cold email he sent the day prior, a total shot in the dark. Long story short, he paced around my apartment on the call with London all morning while I got ready for class and 9 months later his band just released their debut single with Rough Trade! I‘m recommending because of the serendipity of it all, because it’s such a perfect little once-in-a-lifetime-chance stars-aligning real crowd-pleaser of a story, because a lot of good things have come into our lives since we started dating (I think that’s a good sign), and because it’s a genuinely good song I think everyone should listen to!!
