The Luxury of Time, Pt III EP by Broke Royals
Virginia group Broke Royals have released the latest in their EP series, The Luxury of Time, Pt III. Pleasant pop with a some slightly retro feel, highlights here include the slightly country “On My Way”, the electronic “Young Tigers” and the methodical pop song “Heartless Come Around”.
Outside the Lines by Telamor
Massachusettes based Telamor features songs written by Tom Hauk, who sings and plays most instruments.
