1) EDIE YVONNE – Girl Code

Emerging from the vibrant US-based culture of Los Angeles, EDIE YVONNE has captivated listeners with her impressive new single, “Girl Code.” Nestled within the dream pop and indie pop realms, her sound carries the anthemic spirit reminiscent of celebrated artists such as Florence + The Machine and Lana Del Rey.

As an ascending talent in commercial pop and pop rock, EDIE YVONNE exhibits her remarkable singer-songwriter abilities through alluring female vocals and easy-listening melodies. “Girl Code” encompasses those attributes and delivers a banger that is both super catchy and super edgy. As a curator raves, “Her music is divine; its transcendent quality sends shivers down my spine.”

“Girl Code” marks a fresh beginning as the inaugural single produced in collaboration with the talented Rio Root and the debut songwriting partnership with Maddy Simmen.

Navigating the tumultuous transition into high school, “Girl Code” explores evolving relationships, the difficulties of maintaining friendships, and the dramatic experiences of adolescence. This introspective track serves as a captivating response to the previously released youthful anthem, “Queen Bee.”

Their music is audacious and bold, an indie pop echoing the best of the genre with a distinctive twist.

Immersive, with rich female vocals that make your soul rock and the heart flutter, MUMS FAVOURITE demonstrates a promising diversity of talent. Atlantic Records president, Craig Kallman, once stated that “great records are timeless”. And timeless is indeed the apt description for ‘Loveboat’.
