Frankie Simone drops the title track from LOVE//WARRIOR

/

Portland's pop priestess Frankie Simone premiered the title track from her June 1 EP yesterday at AfterEllen and today it's available worldwide on Soundcloud, Spotify, and YouTube. 

"Frankie Simone offers a vision of pop music as a conduit for collective enlightenment, self-empowerment and awakening. Pop rarely transcends the constraints of dominant culture — but Simone’s incantations of radical self-love aren’t just transcendent, they’re transformative."
- AfterEllen

Porlolo, the project or Erin Roberts out of Fort Collins, CO, will be releasing their new EP, Awards, at the end of the month. From this EP, they've just dropped a new catchy anthem for your listening ears. "I Don't Want To Lose" is the second track from the EP, and Glide Magazine calls it a "catchy anthem," filled with hooks and riffs that stay with you: "The catchy anthem balances indie-rock-meets-twang guitar playing that at times brings to mind the dream pop sounds of acts like Luna. Roberts shows off her ability to write and sing choruses that linger in your mind long after listening." Head over to Glide Magazine to read more about the track and give it a spin or two. Awards EP will be out April 27.
