New EP: The Heart Wants || Sudden Cuts

Keep an eye and ear out for this new power pop duo from the East Bay

The Heart Wants is an exciting new power pop duo from Oakland, CA, featuring Kennan Choy (bass, guitars, keys, vocals) and Sean Glass (drums and percussion). Both artists also played together in Toner, a project known for blending garage pop with alternative rock. With The Heart Wants, they channel that energy into a purer power pop sound, keeping just enough garage grit to stay true to their roots.

Their debut EP, Sudden Cuts, lives up to its name: recorded in a single day, the five tracks capture a loose, raw energy that makes the music feel alive and unfiltered. Tracks like Where to Begin and All Over Town hit all the right notes—concise, crunchy, and packed with catchy hooks that stay with you long after listening. This EP shows a clear love for classic power pop with a fresh spin, and it leaves you wanting more.
