The Sunshine State Releases a New Indie-rock Single “BOB”
The Sunshine State shares on her new indie-rock single “BOB,” due out next week. The flourishing project is the work of distinguished songwriter Skyler Stonestreet who’s known for penning top hits for artists like Ariana Grande & Justin Bieber, Dua Lipa, Lennon Stella, The Chainsmokers, Marshmello, Hailee Steinfeld, and many more.
The Sunshine State has been heralded by tastemakers like American Songwriter, The Line of Best Fit, Notion, Earmilk, CULTR, PopMatters, and several others for her previous releases “Things Changed” and “Dating A Drug Dealer” (written by Skyler, Hayley Gene Penner (Lennon Stella, Charlotte Lawrence), and Nick Monson (Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez)). Stonestreet brings her dextrous songwriting and revered indie sound to life in The Sunshine State.
“Bob is a classic bad boy,” says Skyler on the new single. Warm, gritty guitar and hazy percussion color the summery soundscape and The Sunshine State’s confident, glassy vocals add an intimacy to the song that can quite be described. “This song is bonfires and beer bottles crashing on the floor. A chipped tooth, a quick fling, and the feeling that sometimes it doesn’t matter if the person is right or wrong for you because freedom and new adventure are the only things on your mind.”
“With another banger in the bank, it’s only a matter of time before Stonestreet starts cashing in.” – Billboard
“The single possesses Stonestreet’s innate hit-making prowess” – PAPER
“The Sunshine State makes forward-facing nostalgia” – American Songwriter
“gleaming bedroom-pop at its finest” – The Line of Best Fit
“the perfect soundtrack” – Ones to Watch
“all-around badass” – Pop Dust

Jonathan Zogbi reaches new heights with new release “Sky High”
Jonathan Zogbi’s latest release, “Sky High,” is a turning point in his career as a musician. It turns personal problems into a message of hope and growth. The track has a catchy beat and a modern, sleek production style, but it also has a deeper meaning and purpose.
“Sky High” draws on modern pop music and gives it a spiritual boost. The production is bright, which makes it easy to get into, but it doesn’t take away from the song’s emotional core. On the other hand, Zogbi walks a fine line between being popular and telling a good story.
The story behind this release is what makes it so cool. After getting a diagnosis that changed his life, Zogbi left his job as an engineer and turned inward, eventually turning to music. This started as a personal outlet, but it has clearly grown into something more purposeful: a place for realness, connection, and art rooted in a message. Jonathan Zogbi’s new song “Sky High” is also a statement about an artistic path defined by purpose, showing that you can rise even when things are tough.

Knux Burgandy rejects being average on new release “Mediocre”
Knux Burgandy’s new single, “Mediocre,” sounds more like a personal statement than a song. The Boston producer-artist is all in on pain rap, and the song hits hard and with purpose. It’s based on raw feelings, sharpened by what you’ve been through.
“Mediocre” is a hard-hitting trap record, but what really sets it apart is its heart. Burgandy doesn’t just rap, he also talks about how he feels, thinks, and fights against settling for less. It’s easy to chant the hook, and it stays in your head after just one listen. The message, on the other hand, lasts a lot longer, no matter what happens, don’t settle for an average life.
Knux Burgandy is becoming well-known in a way that seems real and important. His community is increasingly supporting him, and he is clearly dedicated to his work. The word “mediocre” isn’t just a word, it’s a reminder that being average was never the goal.
