LISTEN: VEVO ‘Incoming Pop’ Artist Nicolas McCoppin Returns on ‘Remember That Night’

Rising LGBTQ dream-pop artist Nicolas McCoppin has been dubbed “the next Charli XCX.” His recent music video for his single, “Ur Love,” was named by VEVO as “Bound to Be a Hit,” joining the likes of Katy Perry, Christina AguileraNiall Horan, and Chloe MK on their “Incoming Pop” playlist.

We tell you this, of course, because we’re fortunate to have Nicolas join us tonight for a Facebook Live takeover at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT. Before we get there, though, how about we give you a taste of what to expect with his new single?

LISTEN: ‘Going to the Movies’ Reveals the True Mark Fredson

Over the course of his career, and through numerous projects, Mark Fredson has garnered well-deserved attention, both for his fearless showmanship, as well as a knack for writing larger-than-life hooks. Fredson gained notoriety — in Nashville, and across the United States — for his time as the frontman of The Lonely H, and helped Margo Price craft her breakout song “Hurtin’ (On the Bottle).”

The sum of those experiences has culminated in Going to the Movies, Fredson’s new, 9-track volume of “classic bedroom pop” that, in the artist’s own words, is his most authentic work to date.

Going to the Movies sounds very 2019, but it can also take you back to an earlier time,” Fredson said. “It bridges a solid gap between two worlds. I wanted to sound new while still mining the past, and this is my true self on the record. Regardless of the different iterations of music I’ve played in the past, there’s nothing in the world that’s more representative of me as a person than what you hear here.”

If that’s the case, then we love Mark Fredson here at UMC!
