Best New Artists…
Music in 2025 is coming in hot, and two names are turning up the heat: SACHA and Jack Fargo. This month, these two rising stars are commanding attention—not just with their sound, but with the undeniable energy they bring to every beat, lyric, and performance.
In exclusive interviews, Loop Mag sat down with each artist and discovered what makes them Ones to Watch. Whether it’s Sacha’s high energy dance anthems or Jack’s introspective pop/soul bangers, both artists are proving they’re not just passing through the scene. They’re here to take over.
SACHA: The Beat Won’t Drop Without Her
The London-based powerhouse, SACHA, is dropping tracks that feel like the love child of classic dance music. Inspired by legends like David Guetta, Tiësto, and Avicii, Sacha is shaping the next wave of “hands in the air” anthems.
“My main focus right now is dance music,” she says. “I’m obsessed with timeless anthems that still feel fresh today. I want to make that kind of impact.”
Her journey started in Scotland, working on lyrics and melodies with a local producer before making the move to London. Now? She’s writing four to five songs a week, stacking up bangers that are ready to set dancefloors and festivals.
“I’ve always been a melody-driven writer,” she explains. “That’s what I fell in love with first. Once you lock in the melodies, the lyrics almost write themselves. Sometimes I’ll start with a hook that just sticks in my head, and before I know it, the entire song takes shape around it.”
Her ability to connect is undeniable, and social media has been a game-changer. “After my last release with Joel Corry and Nathan Dawe, I realized just how much music can impact people,” she shares. “Seeing fans tattoo my lyrics? That’s next-level. Getting messages from people saying my song helped them through a tough time reminds me why I do this.”
And the best part? She’s just getting started. While she’s keeping details under wraps, she hints at major collaborations dropping in 2025. “I can’t say names yet, but let’s just say, these collabs are big.”
Performing live has also been a revelation for Sacha. “I performed for the first time last year in Ibiza, and it was surreal seeing people singing back the lyrics I wrote. That’s exactly why we write music, to create moments that bring people together.”
Fashion is another way Sacha expresses her artistry. “I’d say my style is loud,” she laughs. “I love turning heads and making statements. Some days, I’m all about sleek, futuristic looks; other days, I want something weird and experimental. That’s how I approach music, too—I love pushing boundaries.”
Looking ahead, she has her sights set on some of the biggest stages in the world. “A dream of mine? Performing at festivals like Coachella, Ultra, Tomorrowland. That’s the goal.”
Jack Fargo: Bringing Memphis Soul To Los Angeles
Jack Fargo’s path has been anything but predictable, and that’s exactly what makes his career so exciting. From his freestyle beginnings as Bigmac Jack to his indie-rock stint with The Motel Brothers, every phase has sharpened his skills and fueled his hunger.
“I still tap into that ‘Bigmac Jack energy’ when I’m on stage,” he says. “That raw, unfiltered hunger it’s something I never want to lose. Back in those days, I was writing verses in the back of class and recording them at my best friend’s house over YouTube beats. We had no clue what we were doing, but we loved it.”
The Motel Brothers marked a turning point. “Starting that band in college and then moving to LA in 2017 was a defining moment,” he reflects. “We learned the hustle,navigating LA’s music scene, grinding through traffic to get to shows, figuring out who we were as artists.”
Now, as Jack Fargo, he’s hit his stride. His sound blends pop-rap and soul, fusing laid back vibes with sharp storytelling. “It’s music that feels alive,” he says. “I want my songs to capture the highs and lows of life in a way that’s real and relatable.”
His biggest musical influences range from Jack Johnson to Biggie Smalls, but lately, he’s been drawing inspiration from Dominic Fike, Jordan Ward, and fellow Memphis artist Healy. “I love artists who aren’t afraid to mix genres and just do their thing.”
One of his proudest moments? Honey by The Motel Brothers & Katie Buxton, a song that’s amassed over 18 million streams. “That was a moment for us. It showed that we could create something that really resonated. That kind of validation? It fuels you to keep going.”
His latest single, Melatonin, started as a late-night conversation. “My girlfriend couldn’t sleep, and as I was strumming my guitar, the word ‘melatonin’ just came out naturally,” he recalls. “The song evolved into something much bigger about unrest, about trying to find peace in a chaotic world. It’s crazy how something so simple can turn into something that means so much.”
Collaboration is key for Jack. He’s worked with artists like Wes Period on Wobble Shake and producer Jayden Seely on his latest releases. “The best creative partnerships come from real friendships,” he says. “When you’re genuinely vibing in the studio, the music just hits different.”
Performing live has been another transformative experience. “Playing with a full band has been huge for me,” he says. “It’s a whole different energy. I love getting to share the stories behind the songs in a live setting, it makes every show feel special.”
As for what’s next? “I’ve got two new singles dropping, one in March, one in April. And we’ll be playing more shows across SoCal. The big goal? Locking in an opening slot for a major tour. That’s the next step.”
Jack’s message to his fans is simple: “I want people to know I’m as real as it gets. The emotions and experiences I write about aren’t too different from what everyone else is going through. If one of my songs makes someone feel a little more understood, or just puts them in a good mood for a few minutes, that’s everything.”
SACHA and Jack Fargo aren’t just making music—they’re creating moments. Sacha’s tracks pulse with the energy of a packed dance floor, capturing everything from the adrenaline rush of a night out to the quiet comfort of a melody that understands you.
Jack, on the other hand, is bringing back raw, unfiltered storytelling, blending pop and soul in a way that feels like a deep conversation set to a killer beat. No gimmicks, no pretense, just music that hits.
