The approaching summer brings along a killer wave of new music – and yes it’s HOT. Brace yourself for some brand new music by Pip Blom, Aurora, Santana, and Yeasayer.  

With the summer festival season getting rolling, it’s no coincidence that the releases are piling up these weeks. You can expect a lot of gigs from the artists releasing their albums at this point in time. Here’s where you might bump into them:

Santana is touring extensively in the US, sixteen shows in Las Vegas included. Norwegian singer-songwriter and producer Aurora can be found in her home country as well as in the UK. Pip Blom is playing their debut album live at festivals all over Europe and the UK (check out the interview we had with Pip earlier this year). Yeasayer can be found in Canada, US, Europe, the UK and in… Mexico!
