New music tends to trickle out slowly at the beginning of any year so I’m rounding up a few month’s worth of songs.
Lyrah - “Meet Me at the Bottom”
An electronic bop
Inhaler - Open Wide
The album is a masterclass in steady, cohesive rock ‘n roll—from start to finish. It’s hard to pick one favorite, but “Billy” and “Again” are probably the immediate standouts.
Denison Witmer - Anything At All
Denison Witmer’s typical soft-spoken acoustic songs are infused with some whimsy thanks to Sufjan Stevens co-producing.
Sia - “Solsbury Hill”
A fun cover of a classic song.
The Weeknd - Hurry Up Tomorrow
The Weeknd continues to put out some fantastic ethereal electronic music. The latest album is no exception.
Selena Gomez, Benny Blanco, Gracie Abrams - “Call Me When You Break Up”
This new Selena Gomez album might be the pop album to watch out for this year.
