With their single ‘Drive’ racking up over 25 million streams on Spotify, Glades are nothing short of impressive. The Australian-based trio - made up of Karina Wykes, Cameron Robertson, and Joseph Wenceslao - met each other in high school and have since gone on to sign to EMI Records, receive praise from the likes of label-mate Troye Sivan (whose song ‘FOOLS’ they released a cover of), and even play their debut U.S. shows to a number of excited fans.

New Zealand duo Physical have just dropped a new single in the form of ‘You Can’t Have Me’ - the follow-up to their lush debut ‘Islands’. The song comes from the band's upcoming debut record, 'Ride It Out'.
This song took Physical the longest to finish on the album - with Julia [Parr] commenting: “Lyrically, that was probably the thing that took the longest. I kept changing them around and not being happy with things. Eventually, it just sort of stuck.”
