Summertime means more time to listen to music and explore new genres and new artists. Whether you’re having a Eurosummer or just relaxing poolside at home, this is the perfect time to dive into some new sounds. Yes, we love supporting our faves like Tate McRae, Madison Beer, and KATSEYE, but we always love to throw in some new artists on our daily music rotation. Here are seven rising artists and songs that we recommend to you, honeybees!
Stephen Dawes
We recently heard ‘Easy Words’ by Stephen Dawes and immediately fell in love with his sound. Before this, we had never heard him before, so this was a great introduction. Lucky for us, Stephen just released his debut album, Skin to Skin. That means we get ten new songs to deep dive into. We can’t recommend Stephen’s debut album enough to you! Planning a summer hike or long road trip? Throw this album on and enjoy! If you are a fan of sombr, Aidan Bissett, or Daniel Seavey, then that means you’ll more than likely also highly enjoy Stephen Dawes’ music. Come back and let us know if we were the first to put you on!

KARLEE GIRL
An artist perfect for summertime, for sure! KARLEE GIRL has got that exciting, shiny, upbeat energy we all need right now. You may already know her from her viral song, ‘Right Back!,’ but have you heard her other songs? We’re here to put you on. Her latest single, ‘what now?’ just released, and it’s been on constant repeat for our hot girl walks lately. She makes music for all the Gen Z pop girls out there who just want to dance in their bedroom with their friends. If you’re a fan of FLO or Adéla, then we’d recommend listening to KARLEE GIRL right now. You don’t want to be left behind when she starts playing arenas in a few years!

Stella Lefty
At this point, you all should know that we love Stella Lefty in the hive. After the success of ‘Boston,’ she’s been on an insane roll! We have to shout out her new song, ‘Good At Leaving,’ which has come at the perfect time. Even though Stella just released a full EP, Is This Heaven?, it seems we are in for even more music. We can’t say no to that! If you’re a country pop fan like us, then you know that summertime is the best time to listen to country music. Windows down, back roads, and country music just go together perfectly. Next time you’re in the mood for this vibe, check out Stella Lefty!

Cameron Whitcomb
Cameron Whitcomb is quickly on the rise, so we had to sneak him onto this list. His song, ‘Kingdom of Fear,’ made it to the Billboard Hot 100 and now has its own music video! If you have yet to get into Cameron Whitcomb’s music, then we’d say ‘Kingdom of Fear’ is the perfect introduction. Fun fact! Cameron is close friends with our girl Stella Lefty, so while you’re streaming Stella’s new song, throw on some Cameron Whitcomb tunes and thank us later!

Sekou
All these other artists better watch out because they’ve got some serious competition in Sekou. After releasing ‘Dangerous Lover,’ Sekou gained an audience quickly and for good reason. He’s giving the full package – unique artistry, choreography, catchy pop songs, and a humble personality. It’s all we could really ask for in a new artist. Sekou just released a new mixtape, IN A WORLD WE DON’T BELONG PT. 2, that continues to introduce new listeners to Sekou’s addictive sound with songs like ‘Does She Know’ and ‘Needy.’ We can’t wait to watch Sekou grow into a mega superstar these next few years!

Landon Barker
Landon Barker is an artist we always have our eye on. After a few years away from music, Landon Barker is back with ‘If I Ever Talk To God.’ We’re so happy that Landon has made his way back to music, and this new single has been a great reintroduction to his sound. If you’ve never heard Landon Barker’s music, take this as your sign to dive right in! Of course, stream ‘If I Ever Talk To God’ first and let us know what you thought about the new song!

Blu DeTiger
We’ve been Blu DeTiger fans since day one! Her new song ‘Whisper’ reminds us just how much we love her sound. According to a press release, Blu says that this new song is “fun, sexy, and built for the dance floor.” This summer, that’s the song we are looking to listen to the most! When Blu DeTiger released All I Ever Want Is Everything in 2024, we were already locked in for future projects. It’s been a minute since Blu released a new song, and ‘Whisper’ is the track we’ve been waiting for!
