On The Rise. Monthly listener increases!

Every month, I check the monthly listeners of all the bands featured on the 250 vote and it always provides some beautiful stats! It's a great way to see the growth of the bands and see who is making moves in the right direction. I look at two things, first is the percentage increase and then the total monthly listener increase. Check out the graphs to see who is on the rise!

All these bands are on the current 250 vote, so have a listen to them on the YPP playlist! Also, be sure to follow them on Instagram by using THIS LINK which will take you to the YPP Insta post about them all.

Listen to the YPP Playlist below:

Introducing the Jan-March 250!

I'm stoked to launch the next phase of YPP, a 3 month vote from Jan until the end of March! I've searched high and low for some of the best new tracks and here they are, the biggest refresh to date. Featuring 43 new bands, 8 returning Hall of Famers and 29 fresh tracks from bands already in the Top 250. This playlist is absolutely packed to the brim with bangers, so sit back, start the year off right and find your new fave band (then vote for them!)

I've copied in the Insta images below. Check out the post and follow along!

Top 11 from The December 250!

The final results of the year are in! Massive congrats to Never Home for winning the December 250. Big shout out to Lights Out for smashing it in 2nd place too.

Never Home have made an epic comeback this year with a couple of solid singles including the winner 'Set Sail Alone', released on 15th Nov after a 5 year hiatus. Make sure to check out their new EP, Beautiful Years, on 17 Jan! You can follow them on Insta here, and listen on Spotify here.

Lights Out, from Sydney, are just getting started and have already connected with pop punk royalty in We The Kings 👑 Big things coming for these guys in 2025 so make sure you keep an eye on them! Follow them on Insta here, and listen on Spotify here. 

Shoutout to the rest of the bands in the top 10 (plus a 4-way tie for 8th, so 11 total!) and the YPP Hall of Fame 💪.
