Urban Cone

Today I want to shed some light on Swedish indie-pop band Urban Cone. Their radio friendly jams are catchy and fun and perfect for a walk through the city on a sunny day.


Their music is very intriguing to me. I think it's great how they can be pop and indie at the same time, and also blend in some electronic elements on top of that. Their sound seems to have been perfected rather quickly, as they began in 2010 and by early 2013 they released their debut album called Our Youth to critical acclaim. The album has an overall cohesive sound and shows strong songwriting talent. Check out this track called We Should Go To France to get you warmed up.



Before the album came out, the band released a single called New York that is a bright, bubbly pop rock song. I especially love this song. It's a shame they did not put it on their album. Not sure what happened there.. but check it out as well! (Also, there is an awesome remix of this track by Oliver Nelson that is definitely worth checking out!)



But don't let these two songs be the only you hear by them today. Their whole album is excellent, and it can be heard in it's entirety on their SoundCloud and on Spotify, and it will be added to the Audible Twilight Spotify Playlist for your convenience. Also, 'Like' them on Facebook!

Other tracks to check out: Kings & Queens, Deja Vu, Kids & Love and Urban Photograph. Oh.. and the remixes of their songs are all on point.

One last treat for you all... they have also worked with EDM producer John Dahlback on a certified banger called We Were Gods! They are some talented dudes.. listen to it below!


Enjoy! <3
