Tim Atlas - "Sidestep" | Live From The Rooftop

What is better than overlooking the illuminated night sky of historic Hollywood, California? Well, to be honest, very few things, but we have found one of those very few rarities. Overlooking the illuminated night sky while the dreamlike music of Tim Atlas floats on by may just be the best experience you could ask for. We had the chance to invite rising neo-soul and dream pop artist Atlas out to bring a vibe quite like no other to our rooftop, and it is safe to say the pleasure was all ours. Performing his recently released single "Sidestep" atop our rooftop, Atlas transported us to another plane entirely.  

Los Angeles - based artist Tim Atlas instills a wealth of texture and atmosphere into his hazy style of left-of-center pop. It is a distinctively dreamy sound that Atlas honed in his 2018 EP, All Talk!, cementing himself as a notable standout in the realm of Los Angeles vibe-makers. Currently working towards his highly-anticipated follow-up to All Talk!, which is expected to be released in April of this year, Atlas has teased us and fans with a series of ethereal singles. Blending elements of dream pop, neo-soul, and R&B, he kicked off the end of 2018 with "Sidestep" and the Hablot Brown - assisted "Color World."
