Hallelujah The Hills Team Up with Sadie Dupuis for a Indie Rock Gem, “Crush All Night”
Hallelujah The Hills, have returned and they’re raising it even higher with the release of their latest single, “Crush All Night.” Driven by insistent guitars, irresistible hooks, and an invigorating shot of pure adrenaline, it’s a song that prudently captures the chaotic thrill of being alive and, who knows, maybe a little bit reckless in the best way.
One of its best tracks, “Crush All Night,” gets a jolt to the heart, thanks to a killer collaboration with Sadie Dupuis (of Speedy Ortiz). Dupuis’ vocals slip in and out of the frantic instrumentation, giving the chaotic mix a pointed, shimmery edge that sounds like neon lights flickering over a late-night odyssey. Her presence doesn’t so much as complement the band’s sound as vault it, her voice takes the song to another stratosphere.
There are a few wasted moments on “Crush All Night,” which clocks in just north of 3 minutes. It explodes out of the gate with a vulgar immediacy that feels raw and painstakingly constructed, the equivalent of a live wire you’d have no choice but to grab on to. Hallelujah, The Hills have always been able to mix brainy lyrics with brawny, anthemic music, and here they tweak that formula to something dangerously catchy.
It’s a song you turn up on your headphones when you’re walking home from some rager, heart pounding, half in love with the world and half ready to tear it. There’s a wanton joyousness with which “Crush All Night” hurtles headlong, no guarantee, no denial, love in a bottle ready to explode.
“All Night” crushes it not just for existing Hallelujah The Hills fans weaned on the many life phases of their favorite working band, but also for anyone who wants to fall in love with some excellent indie rock already. It’s urgent without being hasty, emotional, melodramatic, and catchy without undermining the weird, wonderful core that has always made this band special.

Reetoxa captures a fleeting moment in new release “Thrift Shop Dress”
Reetoxa’s latest release, “Thrift Shop Dress,” is a bright, feel-good rock track that captures the moment when you see someone unforgettable and have no idea what to do about it. The track starts with a lot of energy, attitude, and a rush of youthful spontaneity that feels both new and familiar.
While driving through Brunswick on the way to band practice, Jason wrote the song. It came to him almost as quickly as the moment that gave him the idea. When he saw a beautiful, effortlessly cool girl, his imagination took over, and within a minute, the bones of “Thrift Shop Dress” were already alive. That sense of urgency runs through the whole song, giving it a real, unfiltered pulse that can’t be faked.
“Thrift Shop Dress” is simple but something everyone can relate to, seeing someone across the street who makes you stop in your tracks. Reetoxa doesn’t make things more complicated, instead, she leans into the raw feelings of the moment, the curiosity, the doubt, and the crazy stories your mind starts telling you right away.

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.
