Kelsy Karter is a throwback to when rock 'n' roll was fun. Stylistically, her music is brash and anthemic, somewhere between '70s arena rock and '80s pop metal.

Aesthetically, Karter and her band the Heroines fit the part. Long messy hair, tight pants, and black leather help create an experience that feels lifted from the Sunset Strip's heyday.

As the band tours the world and releases music like the recent power ballad "Hotel Flamingo," they keep the momentum going for rock's resurgence. Their new album, Love Made Me Do It, is out Jan. 31.

For the final episode of 2025, Jordan Edwards and Demi Ramos talk to Karter about new music, her viral Harry Styles face tattoo, and why she loves life on the road.

During the holidays, it’s easy to forget the excitement and anticipation you experienced as a child. With “Kid at Christmas,” Calum Scott captures the magic of that feeling.

A duet with Christina Perri, the single is a reminder to slow down and feel the joy of the season. Build around piano and strings, it evokes the classic Christmas pop era of the 1950s and ’60s.

Jordan Edwards talks to Scott about the story behind the song and some favorite Christmas memories. After the interview, stick around for Demi Ramos’ favorite albums of 2024.

'Christmas Bells Are Ringing' is a collection of holiday standards inspired by the golden era that gave us classics by Perry Como, Brenda Lee, Andy Williams, and Darlene Love.

Jordan and Demi talk to Aiken about recording the album, his favorite holiday foods (hot takes!), and his rise to fame on 'Idol."

This week, Demi talks to two of her favorite indie artists, re6ce and Max Fry. re6ce is a Liverpool-based musician. From a small home studio, re6ce creates trippy pop that meshes chillwave with Stone Roses-style psychedelia. Their latest single "SCREAMING ALONE" follows the EP grey europe from earlier this year.
Max Fry is a songwriter and producer who calls his mix of dark post punk and synth pop "Floridacore." His rise in popularity was ignited by the viral single "zombie," released in 2023. Like re6ce, Fry is adept at making music that sounds futuristic and vintage at the same time.

Jordan Edwards and Demi Ramos talk to Emi Grace about developing her technique, her favorite guitarists, and collaborating with roommate Zoe Ko. Plus a performance!
