As music fans acclimate to swaying in big crowds again, artists — especially pop stars such as Post Malone, Lizzo, and Carrie Underwood — are eager to drop new material knowing it will actually reach a live audience and not just become the latest viral success on TikTok.
Drive-By Truckers, Welcome 2 Club XIII Welcome 2 Club XIII, the new album from Drive-By Truckers, is named in tribute to the Alabama venue where founding members Patterson Hood and Mike Cooley played early in their careers. For the project, the long-running Athens, Georgia–based rock band recruited background vocals from Margo Price, Schaefer Llana, and R.E.M.’s Mike Mills. Promising more of their roots-rock sound, the LP follows their two 2020 albums, The New OK and The Unraveling.
BTS, Proof Proof is a three-disc anthology celebrating BTS’s prolific nine-year career so far, starting with their 2013 debut single “No More Dream,” going all the way to the 2021 global hit “Butter.” The trove includes unearthed demos and a cappella versions of the group’s beloved songs like “Spring Day” and “DNA,” as well as tracks that never got an official release — including 2013’s “Born Singer,” which interpolates J. Cole’s “Born Sinner.
Perfume Genius, Ugly Season In 2019, Perfume Genius’s Mike Hadreas co-directed and composed songs for a contemporary dance performance called The Sun Still Burns Here, alongside Seattle choreographer Kate Wallich. The Seattle pop experimentalist is now compiling that music for Ugly Season, a new album that includes the previously released jangling dance tracks “Eye in the Wall” and “Pop Song.
Goose, Dripfield The underlying idea behind Dripfield, the new project from Connecticut jam band Goose, is “of saturation,” says singer and guitarist Rick Mitarotonda in a statement. “Imagine a piece of earth — it’s kind of like the water level rising and seeping up to the top. It’s a metaphor for the creativity we have inside of us.
Soccer Mommy, Sometimes, Forever Soccer Mommy, the moniker of Nashville singer-songwriter Sophie Allison, seems like an unlikely artist to be paired with experimental producer Oneohtrix Point Never. But after the two discovered they were mutual fans, they decided to work together on Allison’s third album, Sometimes, Forever, bonding over ’80s goth bands like the Cure and Siouxsie and the Banshees.
Noah Cyrus, The Hardest Part It’s been seven years since she made her debut as a recording artist with her Labrinth-featuring hit “Make Me ,” but the youngest Cyrus sibling is now ready to release her debut album. The Hardest Part was made with producer Mike Crossey and features the country-inflected pop singles “I Burned LA Down,” which sees Cyrus using the dread of wildfires as a metaphor for her festering breakup emotions, and “Mr.
Beach Bunny, Emotional Creature Since blowing up on TikTok with their 2018 indie-rock anthem “Prom Queen,” Chicago pop-rock act Beach Bunny have continued to have a strong hold on the platform. Their debut album, 2020’s Honeymoon, brought another viral hit: the young-love-capturing “Cloud 9,” which has been remade by Tegan and Sara. Now the band, led by singer and guitarist Lili Trifilio, continue the momentum with their upcoming Emotional Creature.
September Rina Sawayama, Hold the Girl Rina Sawayama ascended to pop stardom with 2020’s Sawayama, which saw her exploring a little bit of everything: nu-metal, glossy 2000s-era pop, and club beats. The unbounded Japanese British artist started teasing her sophomore effort last fall on tour, previewing a new song about her relationship with her mother called “Catch Me in the Air.
