There's a lad from Auckland, New Zealand by the name of Thomas Stoneman, aka Thomston, who is receiving quite the buzz as of late. He recently released his debut EP,School Night, with the single "Midas" drawing great comparisons to the great Lorde.
Now, I'm not entirely sure if we're comparing him to Lorde because he is simply a compatriot, but I really don't see it that way. Yes, he can possibly be as successful with his power pop style and hook filled melodies, but Thomas has some very interesting dark nuances attached to his music.
A better comparison to make would be to The Neighbourhood and Sir Sly, which is exactly what I thought of when I first came across this song. Maybe you guys will hear the similarities as well.
If you like what you hear, you can grab a copy of the EP for free here!
