hat would you get if you mixed contemporary music production with a soulful, old- school approach to songwriting? Probably something like Chris Gallant. Dubbed simply Gallant, the Maryland native and NYU grad arrived in LA after a tumultuous time spent in Manhattan. Soon after touching down in LA, Gallant finished up his first EP, Zebra, which he refers to as his “sonic diar y,” chronicling his dark time spent in New York. Zebra caught considerable hype, which eventually led Gallant to Tom Windish (founder of Windish Agency) and EDM authority Jake Udell (the man behind Krewella and Zhu)—and the rest, as they say, is history. Gallant names everyone from Babyface to Incubus as his influences, an eclectic roster that’s depicted in his unparalleled falsetto and energetic, often ferocious live performances. You can catch the new face of alt-R&B with TV on the Radio on November 14 th at the Theatre at Ace Hotel. @sogallant soundcloud.com/gallant

nce upon a time, skate dude Nick Diamond began manufacturing t-shirts and hardware—as in bolts and screws—up in San Francisco under the moniker Diamond Supply Co. The brand quickly evolved into a full-range clothing company carr ying ever ything from field jackets and strapbacks to skateboards and slides. Seventeen years and a substantial cult following later, Diamond Supply has added womenswear to its catalog of high- end urban basics with Diamond Women’s, a cohesive collection of printables, accessories, and cut-and-sew pieces including dresses, skirts, jackets, fleece, leggings, and shorts. You know the jersey dress of your dreams? The one you imagine wearing with your Stan Smiths? They make that.
