instant crush

Megan Cannon, born and raised in Seattle, WA, began her musical journey from the depths of her bedroom. Driven by a desire for collaboration, she soon paired up with fellow musicians Matthew Tran, Keegan Mangahas, and Zoee Mangahas, and together they became instant crush.

With a mission to breathe new life into the genre that ruled the 2000s, instant crush is ever-evolving. Fusing shimmering synths, electrifying guitar riffs, and penetrating vocals, they take the energy of the anthemic rock bands that ruled the radio and intertwine it with poignant, soul-baring lyrics fit to be the soundtrack of a coming-of-age film. Put simply, instant crush makes music for the tongue biters who have a lot on their mind.

Having shared the stage with renowned acts such as Del Water Gap, the Home Team, the Wrecks, the Plain White T’s, Daisy Grenade, and the Academic, instant crush is carving their own space in the alternative music scene that raised them. Their debut album, scheduled for release in 2024, further solidifies themselves as a band to watch.
