Nottingham’s Finest: Commons Drops Debut EP ‘Clean Living’

Get ready to turn up the volume and hit repeat because Nottingham indie-rockers Commons have just unleashed their highly anticipated debut EP, ‘Clean Living’! Released on May 24th, this EP is packed with infectious energy, vibrant melodies, and a whole lot of rock ‘n’ roll spirit.
Hailed for their unique fusion of indie rock and electronic elements, Commons has been making waves in the Nottingham music scene and beyond. From packed-out shows to radio play across the UK, placements on Apple Music playlists, and glowing reviews from tastemakers, Commons is a band on the rise.
Drawing comparisons to the likes of Kasabian, Foals, and Bloc Party, Commons has crafted a sound that is both commercially accessible and refreshingly alternative. Seamlessly blending lush synth lines with tight guitar riffs, punchy drums, and earworm melodies, the band’s music is a sonic rollercoaster that leaves you craving more.
Speaking about the EP, the band shares: “Clean Living is an ode to our kaleidoscopic taste in music, with each song giving a flare of something exciting that catches your ears leaving you eager for more. There is a wide range of meaning behind each track in this, it’s not solely based on one event or feeling – it’s more focused on telling short stories and experiences.”
Already known for their electrifying live performances, including a sold-out show at Beat The Streets Festival, Commons has received praise from outlets like Earmilk, Ones To Watch, and Fame Magazine. And with upcoming live dates, including a headline show at Rough Trade Nottingham on June 8th, Commons is set to solidify their place as Nottingham’s finest musical export.
So, crank up the volume, hit play on ‘Clean Living’, and get ready to embark on a musical journey you won’t soon forget. Commons is here to rock your world, one electrifying riff at a time!

Aro Rose Releases Emotional New Single “Live Without You” — Now Available Worldwide

Genre-blending singer/songwriter Aro Rose has officially dropped her highly anticipated new single, “Live Without You,” and it’s now streaming everywhere music lives.
A hauntingly honest track about love, loss, and letting go, “Live Without You” showcases Aro’s signature dark pop aesthetic—think cinematic piano lines, ghostly synths, and lyrics that hit where it hurts. It’s raw. It’s vulnerable. It’s that 3AM track you cry to…and then play again.
“I wrote this one straight from my gut,” Aro says. “It’s about that moment when you realize you’ve outgrown someone you thought you couldn’t live without. There’s sadness in it—but also strength.”

Self-taught and self-made, Aro Rose first turned heads with her distinctive sound that sits somewhere between Lana Del Rey’s noir romanticism and Fiona Apple’s emotional honesty. Since stepping away from the major label system, she’s carved out a fiercely independent path—and “Live Without You” is her boldest, most personal release to date.
The single is produced by longtime collaborators Gabriel Maciocia and Robert Federici, who help bring Aro’s dark visions to life with lush, atmospheric production that lets her voice shine through the shadows.
“Live Without You” is available now on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube, and all major streaming platforms.
