Hi there,

Times are weird right now. Please tell me some new music that has brought you joy recently.

Comments

Stuff that isn't necessarily new, but new-ish to me:

- The new Lucy Dacus stuff (unsurprisingly) rips super hard
- Vulfmon stuff with Evangeline (Got To Be Mine, Letting Things Go)
- Last Last Time by Boys Go To Jupiter

“Bewitched” by Laufey and “Charm” by Clairo I was introduced to by my kids and both have a separate kind of relaxing vibe to them. Depends on your preferences.

(Stream the “Goddess Edition” of the Bewitched album, btw. “Goddess” itself makes it worth it.)

This covers album is definitely soothing:

Just added this to my wishlist for the Go Betweens cover.

There’s a TREMENDOUS amount of music from the Canadian series “Letterkenny” that I’ve been getting into. They do a fantastic job of highlighting good Canadian music that we don’t get very often in The States. It’s some leg work, but it’s totally worth it.

The new one from Sharp Pins, the new Cloakroom album (or at least the tracks that have been released), and last year‘s Chat Pile album, which is not really joy-bringing as transforming all of the ugliness of :gestures broadly: into musical form, and that has value.

Oh my, thanks for all the great recommendations. It's very heartening.
