Upcoming Stars Spotlight
By Eleni and Kiwi

This month, Kiwi and I have compiled a list of amazing bands which will rock your summer!


First up, we have an amazing Greek band called Suave Gap. They’re a mix of Blink 182, MXPX and their own unique style. They’ve been around for over 10 years and their song has been featured in a Greek advert for television. They’ve played shows with a large variety of different artists, including Avril Lavigne. So why should you listen to them? Their songs have a great beat, amazing lyrics and you’ll soon be singing along and enjoying their music!

Next, we have Holiday Parade. This band has a very summery vibe. Their songs are varied and their lyrics are meaningful. They’re on tour throughout the summer all around the USA so be sure to catch them at one of their gigs! With music on iTunes and an expanding fanbase, this band is definitely one to look out for!

Molly Marlette is next on our list. With an indie yet folky sound, her music makes us relax and think of the summer. Her unique sound reminds us of olden music mixed with a twist of today. It’s truly unique and definitely worth checking out! Prepare to expand your music horizons!

One Night Only is currently one of Eleni’s favourite bands. Their music is also very unique! There’s no band that sounds like them currently! Started from England, they’ve hit the world and are slowly making their way to the top. With tours in the United Kingdom, songs on the radio and their album on iTunes, there’s no stopping them!

You’ll definitely know the siblings of this band. Metro Station has recently grown and become a hit for teenagers world wide. With a European tour earlier this year, Metro Station are set to steal your hearts. Older siblings of Miley Cyrus and Mitchel Musso, Metro Station have the electronic pop sound in the bag!

And finally, some good friends of ours…Push Play! Push Play have been around for a couple of years but recently, they’ve become huge! With huge concerts, features in magazines such as Popstar! and fans worldwide, who knows what’s next for Push Play! Their sound is a blend of pop and rock, with electro too! They’ve got a great sound and are perfect to listen to whilst chilling by the pool!
