Homegrown Music Month continues. Tune in to 91.7 KXT to hear today’s featured artist. And check back tomorrow to see who’s in the spotlight next.
Phantomelo
From: Arlington / Dallas
Goes well with: Arctic Monkeys, The Strokes
Why we picked them: This dreamy, surf-inspired indie rock band transports crowds into a world of their creation, leading the charge in dynamic performance and showmanship. Leader Will Rakkar’s songwriting explores the contrast between light and heavy, with gleaming melodies carrying substantial messages about climate change, the human condition and socio-political commentary.
Fun fact: Phantomelo’s t-shirts in their merch booth are made from recycled plastic bottles, supporting their vision to be an advocate of environmental change.
