In Austin, Texas, Bobby Cheatham (of Bad Birds Distance Runner) and author Liz Feezor form the synth-rock duo Candy Riot. The band cites Depeche Mode and The Eurythmics as musical influences, and their sound combines synths, guitars, drum machines, and ethereal vocals.
They concentrate on pop music with strong vocal harmonies and dance beats. They have about 100k Spotify streams, and 101X Homegrown Live has played their last 8 singles in a row.

They have already released the lead single from their upcoming debut full-length album, titled “Moonstar,” called “Only You.” The album will be released in late August.
