This track featuring Chance Peña, released in June 2025, is a number that falls under what’s called indie dance.

Centered on Chance’s soulful acoustic vocals, it skillfully weaves in Gryffin’s signature emotional build-ups and drops.

The theme—offering support in difficult times—is expressed through a warm yet uplifting sound, and fans praise it for “balancing nostalgia with freshness.” Gryffin himself calls it an ambitious return to his roots, reminiscent of the Gravity era, making it a perfect song for anyone seeking music that resonates with the heart.

Portland TownHeavenly

Heavenly – Portland Town

Heavenly, who emerged from Oxford, England, are a quintessential indie pop/twee pop band formed in 1989.

They went on hiatus in 1996 after the passing of their drummer, Mathew Fletcher, but joyfully reunited in 2023.

This song—their first in 29 years—features their signature sound: Amelia and Cathy’s charming twin vocals paired with shimmering guitar riffs.

The lyrics offer a warm cheer to those who feel a bit out of place in society, portraying the city of Portland as a refuge for everyone.

Set for release in June 2025, with a vinyl edition available in July, this track is one we hope not only longtime fans will enjoy, but also anyone looking for uplifting pop music.

James Marriott – Something’s Wrong (Official Music Video)

James Marriott, a Swiss-born creator who’s also active as a YouTuber and is currently based in the UK, released this track in June 2025.

It serves as the final single from his album “Don’t Tell The Dog,” which was released the same month, and it has also been issued as an EP.

He describes his sound as “emotional pop, dramatic alternative rock, and a bit bitey,” and while rooted in indie rock, it breaks new ground.

The official music video surpassed 240,000 views just four days after release, and the team reportedly spent over two hours filming at a bowling alley—testament to their attention to detail.

It’s a track you’ll want to hear if you’re seeking stirring melodies and striking visuals.

My Baby (Got Nothing At All)Japanese Breakfast

My Baby (Got Nothing At All) (Materialists Original Soundtrack)

“Japanese Breakfast” may sound like a cheeky name, but the indie pop band from Philadelphia is a project centered around Korean American musician Michelle Zauner.

She began the project in 2013, and the songs she wrote while caring for her mother culminated in the 2016 debut album Psychopomp.

It’s also fresh in our memory that their 2021 album Jubilee was nominated for a Grammy.

The new song they released in June 2025, written for director Celine Song’s film Materialists, features an appealing, crisp alternative-country sound.

Its lyrics celebrate the value of time spent with a loved one over material wealth, beautifully aligning with the film’s theme.

It’s a number that those seeking richness of the heart will especially want to hear.

Touch Me Like A GangsterJessie Murph

Jessie Murph – Touch Me Like a Gangster (Official Visualizer)

American singer-songwriter Jessie Murph.

Known for her genre-blending sound that fuses country, pop, and hip-hop, the single she released in June 2025 is a lead track from her second album, “Sex Hysteria,” which dropped in July of the same year.

This R&B-leaning song spotlights Jessie’s signature raspy high-register vocals and tension-building strings, delivering a candid anthem of women’s sexual autonomy and liberation.

Its debut at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Show in May 2025 also generated major buzz.

It’s a must-hear for listeners who want to experience her evolution from an introspective debut to a bolder form of self-expression.
