Shindig's New Pop Explosion Playlist (Issue #175)

THE NEW POP EXPLOSION (2024-2026)

SHINDIG ISSUE #175 (2026)

 

Chiming guitars, three-part harmonies, denim jackets adorned with iron-on patches, an open love of '60s British Invasion and '70s powerpop, communal indie labels, a loosely connected world of young bands celebrating the sheer joy of "The Song" and appreciating each other's efforts. Jon 'Mojo' Mills and Andy Morten compiles a 34-track playlist featuring such gems as The Lemon Twigs, Sharp Pins, Mod lang, Uni Boys, The Gnomes and numerous recent songs from new artists that fit the bill. Using some parts of the magazine, i've made a custom artwork and included the five pages about some of the bands on the playlist.
