The band’s flexibility as musicians is demonstrated by their self-titled genre, “skatepark pop,” which is inspired by bands like The Killers and Paramore. The band never fails to enthral listeners with their inventive atmosphere and well-crafted songs.

Throughout the four tracks, Quit Dreaming, transports listeners to the epicentre of alternative rock and pop-punk, while offering various soundscapes with rhythmic precision.

Experience the incredible genre-bending on, Quit Dreaming, where the only thing that stays the same is the thrilling change, which surely creates a sound unlike anything heard before.

“‘Quit Dreaming’ is about redefining pop/punk for a new home-studio generation. With this project, we want to launch a new wave of early 2000’s nostalgia. We hope that these songs grab the hand of Gen-Z-ers journeying through adulthood.”

In April, singer-songwriter and actress Alivia Clark released the breathtaking single, “Breathless.” The budding songstress now closes out the summer and kicks off the fall with “Dancing In Circles.” The Dance-Pop anthem is marked by its pulsating, intoxicating rhythm and Alivia Clark’s polished, sultry vocals.

“Dancing In Circles” is a groove-led up-tempo record that is fun and uber-catchy. The euphoric song’s sensual vibe accentuates the track’s theme of blissful yet wary seduction and temptation. “‘Dancing In Circles’ explores the push and pull of attraction and is about being stuck in a cycle with someone that you know isn’t good for you, but the chemistry makes it impossible to let go.” Alivia Clark continues, “There’s something so addictive about that feeling, you know that you’re going around in circles, but part of you doesn’t want to stop.”
