Contagious - Night Riots

Happy spooky Sunday! Fall is well underway, which means my energy is steadily increasing as we reach Halloween.
I've been obsessed with this synth-heavy rock from California natives Night Riots for a while now. The group began as a high school band, which went on to release a self-produced album and an EP. Around the time of the release of their first EP, they adopted the name Night Riots and released a second.
What I love about this band, and musicians in general who follow the same pattern, is they have built a following through touring rather than signing with a label. The concept worked, helping them develop a loyal fan base as they released their debut album in 2016, which made Billboard's Heatseekers chart.
This track gives off some of the same vibes as DON BROCO, so I must be in a mood for these dance-rock bops.
Honorable mentions: "On The Line", "Shine", "Colour Morning"
