NOVA MAY DROPS LEAD SINGLE “TROPICANA BAR” AND MUSIC VIDEO FROM UPCOMING SOPHOMORE PROJECT - LISTEN HERE
The ROCKR ROOM MINI ALBUM IS SET TO RELEASE ON JULY 25, 2025
Los Angeles, CA (June 20, 2025) – Today, recession pop artist Nova May unleashes “TROPICANA BAR,” the lead single from her sophomore project ROCKR ROOM, set to release later this summer on July 25. Co-written by Nova May, 444BOY, and a team of collaborators, and produced by 444BOY, the track is a nostalgic pop fantasy with a sharp modern edge. With “TROPICANA BAR,” Nova May transports listeners to a sun-soaked, bass-driven escape — a beachside fever dream where euphoria meets emotional chaos. Listen to “TROPICANA BAR” HERE.
Nova May shares, “‘TROPICANA BAR’ is one of the most fun and honest songs I’ve ever made. This one’s gonna take you straight to the European dance clubs and slap you round the face with the beat for sure. In fact, the whole project will when it drops July 25th!”
In the accompanying video, which premieres today, Nova May takes us back with nostalgic, Y2K-inspired visuals shot through the lens of a summer haze. The sun-drenched aesthetic is complete with playful choreography and saturated color, perfectly matching the energy of this upbeat track. Preview available HERE.
Blending the infectious highs of recession pop with punk and rock influences, Nova continues to craft her signature world: one of glitter, grit, and emotional truth, inviting listeners to escape, feel, and fully immerse themselves.
The upcoming EP, ROCKR ROOM, is the next evolution of the Nova May universe. Where her last project, I AM THE CLUB, celebrated chaotic freedom, party girl energy, and messy nights out, ROCKR ROOM dives deeper. It’s louder, darker, more unhinged, and more glamorous—channeling raw rock star energy with a pop sheen. Thematically, the project explores self-discovery, mental health, power, and identity, blending gritty punk influences with euphoric electronic hooks.
The release follows the success of Nova’s hot singles “STARBOUNCE,” which graced BBC Radio 1 twice, and “POLIZEI,” which earned her an honor as one of Spotify’s May Fresh Finds artists of the month. Nova was also featured on the cover of Spotify’s Evolver playlist and received placements in Fresh Finds, Fresh Finds Pop, Hyperpop, New Music Friday UK for every single release this year, and many more.
