From Los Angeles via New York comes a fresh new group, led by sassy Sarah McTaggart, with a hot summer jam.

The electro-pop sounds of this track are catchy and hypnotic — in other words, totally irresistible. “Only love you when you’re someone,” singer McTaggart coos over a bubbly beat.

“I wrote this song about my love/hate relationship with Los Angeles,” explains McTaggart, who shares stylistic similarities with Lorde and Lana Del Rey. “Everyone here wants something so desperately.”

Be warned: the three-minute song, a dystopian cocktail of desire and dread, is impossible to forget once it worms its way into your head.
