Zinadelphia

With a sound that blends the best of the past and present, Zinadelphia crafts timeless, colorful songs that play the long game.

Following a successful trio of singles, Zinadelphia released her debut Lucky EP in 2023, and began touring as support for artists who are equally as audacious: Medium Build, Teddy Swims and most recently, Tori Kelly. “It’s the most fun I’ve had in my whole life,” she describes. She built her audience organically, performing cross-country for the first time and captivating new fans with her singular voice and charm.

Entering 2024, Zinadelphia brought together writer-producers Leroy Clampitt and Gabe Goodman, working out of LA together to create a sound that is everything she’s always wanted. “I’m very much a maximalist,” she explains. “I wanted to dip into an old Hollywood feel, almost Burlesque-like.” This aesthetic, combined with her love of 60s and 70s icons like The Supremes, Gloria Gaynor, and Tammi Terrell, birthed songs that feel reminiscent of those decades, while still being grounded in the present. Her next single, “Love Over Glory,” encapsulates the power that Zinadelphia has always possessed, now on full display. She strives to be realistic, rather than aspirational, about her struggles, contrasting darker themes with high energy tempos. Referencing disco motifs with bombastic horns, funk basslines and a four-on-the-floor beat, the single sets the stage for a new era to come: “It’s the most me I’ve ever felt.”

Zinadelphia embraces life’s “ugly truths” through her songwriting, using music as an outlet to process new experiences and express herself. She captures the highs and lows of womanhood, marrying vintage aesthetics with a fresh and exciting perspective.

Louisa Stancioff

Yep Roc Records is excited to announce the signing of Maine-based singer-songwriter Louisa Stancioff!

Born and raised in rural Maine, Louisa has emerged as a gifted writer with a cinematic eye for richly detailed, emotionally-charged character studies that grapple with the complexities of loneliness and desire, freedom and regret, guilt and forgiveness. A nomadic soul who spent stints living in Alaska, California, New York, and North Carolina before returning home, she grew up learning traditional Bulgarian music from her paternal grandfather’s side of the family and reveled in singing American folk and roots tunes with her friends.

Louisa has unveiled a new single “Red Neck Yaught Club,” her first release under her own name, as well as her first single for Yep Roc Records. The official video, filmed on her family’s stomping grounds in rural Maine by Matt Gaillet, features a series of vignettes in the heat of summer and nostalgic reflection.

“Red Neck Yaught Club,” is a “nostalgic flashback to my adolescence,” says Louisa. “It’s a metaphorical place you can go to get away from the burdens of society and live freely and openly with excitement and purpose.”

Louisa tours with her very talented bandmates Dave Kelly and Dan Kelly, who also live in midcoast Maine.
