Evan Bieber releases new single “Market Kids”

Coming out of Brooklyn’s indie scene, Evan Bieber stands as one of its most emotionally attuned voices. Bringing cinematic, heartfelt songwriting, his music blends the intimate storytelling of a singer-songwriter with the shimmering impact of indie pop and echoes of alternative rock. Earning deserved comparisons to Turnover, Runnner and The 1975, Evan forges songs that speak directly to the moments we often struggle to put into words.

Unveiling his sound in 2021 with the debut single “A Little More,” he dropped a string of tracks in the build up to his first EP, Reckless, which arrived the next year. Continuing to build his musical world across several singles, a second EP and his 2023 full-length album Maybe I Thought About You Once, he’s been going from strength to strength while winning over fans around the world and being securing features in New Scene Magazine, Canvas Rebel and spins on indie radio across the USA.

His live shows at iconic New York venues like Pianos and Arlene’s Grocery capture the same emotive energy that runs through his recordings and when he’s not making music, he works as a special education teacher, a role that mirrors his empathetic approach to life and art. He also once hosted the PopRocks podcast, a platform that further showcased his passion for music and conversation.

Now, bringing us his first release of 2025, he shares his brand new single titled “Market Kids,” a song which arrives as both a celebration and a snapshot of a very specific moment in his life. Written about being broke in New York City but completely in love, it captures the bittersweet freedom of youth and the steadfast warmth of connection. Inspired by his real-life move to Brooklyn with his partner; sharing a cramped apartment, sleeping on a mattress on the floor and spending their last few dollars on takeout, the song is an ode to finding joy in imperfection.

Co-written with producer Rob Chiarappa, the track brings bright, infectious indie pop aesthetic tinged with subtle rock energy capped by Evan’s smooth vocal performance as he spins instantly catchy hooks carrying picture painting lyricism. “Market Kids is the rush of being young, broke, and in love, laughing through the chaos and still feeling rich in the moments that matter,” he shares on the song’s context. Brought in by the stutter of instrumental textures, the arrangement bursts to life with uptempo pulsing rhythms and airy guitar notes before flowing through an invigorating pop scene that’s sure to put a smile on your face.

Packed full of danceable energy, slick songwriting and lively instrumentation, “Market Kids” takes a vivid moment in Evan Bieber’s life and turns it into a sensational musical moment. Once again showcasing his engaging songwriting and performance panache, Evan Bieber serves up a stunning jam that’s truly impossible not to love and we can’t wait to see what he’s got in store next.
