From the intense and multi-layered EP AMERICXN, FIVE4FIVE introduces the bold trap sound and spiralling vocal crescendos of AMERICANXTCY in a fiercely devoted way.

Trap

Where Do We Go? is an absolute earworm of an indie rock single – a huge hook, harmonised voices united, a familiar existential crisis at the forefront, and catchy verses that feel familiar but fresh enough in this distorted, high-energy setting. The juxtaposition of confronting lyrical depth and joyful pop-rock escapism is mighty, and that makes this an easy favourite.

Creative modern production continues to drive much of the indie realm of late. Long-time artist and songwriter Katherine Appello notes an impressively vast repertoire of music in keeping with that scene, but also offers a rather timeless and thoughtfully heartfelt twist on the rising format, seeking to inspire and comfort listeners, with a humble fusion of folk, pop, and country musicianship.
