It is crazy to think we are already have way through 2026! The year has flown by so far, and blessed us with nothing but bangers!

Here are our TOP 5 PICKS for 2026 (SO FAR):

1: Daisy Grenade- Emily

We discovered them this past fall when they opened for STAND ATLANTIC and immediately loved everything about it. The band put out a 5 track EP in May that absolutely SLAPS and cements them in the pop-punk world. 

For #2 we are going COUNTRY 🤠 

ELLA LANGLEY- Choosing Texas

We have been saying for months that this is the AOTY. Every track is flawless, including this boot stomper, which has us all two-steppin' around the room. 

#3- Honestav: How I Got My Name

This is one we just got lucky and stumbled upon. Av has a new single out and touring with MGK, making big waves, proving he could be one to notice moving into 2027.

#4- We have said it once, we will say it again: JERIS JOHNSON is the future Nickelback of rock. Bring on the hate- we LOVE it. Jeris has had a string of bangers lately and we are hoping to see them all come to tune on a full-length later. With his last physical album release in 2024- we gotta be getting close! 

Cappin' off the top 5 we have LAUREN SANDERSON who has been on the radar for a hot minute- doing some collabs with other featured artists in our world. This time she's back with a full-length album packed with bangers. Even Fred Durst of Limp Bizkit thought so, needing to jump on COME SAY SUM.

The list does not stop there- and you can stream the TOP 25 right here.
