When KAYTRANADA left the 2021 Grammys with two awards (Best Dance/Electronic Album for 2019�s BUBBA and Best Dance Recording for �10%�) he made history as the first Black and first openly gay artist to win the former category. The industry recognition was long overdue for the producer who had been building a devout following for nearly a decade. �In my mind I was finally a true artist,� he tells Apple Music�s Zane Lowe. After relocating to Los Angeles, he channeled that confidence into making his third solo album, TIMELESS: �It felt more serious�more legit. I was still having fun making TIMELESS, but making BUBBA was another type of fun where I didn�t really take it seriously.� Like its predecessor, TIMELESS is a collection of club grooves for catching a vibe. It�s packed with guests who effortlessly acclimate to KAYTRANADA�s singular sound while imprinting their own touch. Ravyn Lenae offers breathy seductions on the hard-edged R&B of �Video,� and Thundercat delivers comical disses in soothing falsetto on the jazzy hip-hop of �Wasted Words.� Back-to-back tracks �Do 2 Me� (featuring Anderson .Paak and SiR) and �Witchy� (featuring Childish Gambino) hit an energy peak, their tales of late-night infatuation framed by sultry, body-enveloping production.

Renee Rapp's sophomore studio album "BITE ME" encourages listeners to embrace every facet of their personality, the chaotic and the confident, and to be authentically, unapologetically themselves. It's a raw, unfiltered, and vulnerable album about self-acceptance in its truest form, and like Rapp herself, creates a community for unfiltered self-expression.

�If my life is a movie, this Movie Sucks.� MN siblings, Durry, return with an aggressive follow up to their viral debut �Suburban Legend�. Like a kick in the teeth and a nice warm hug all rolled into one. �This Movie Sucks� is a tongue in cheek look at real life. Tackling everything from toxic internet culture, and US economics, to heavy topics like grief and loss, all with a wink and a smile. The sound is wildly diverse, taking Durry�s established sound and stretching it further than ever before. With strong punk rock sensibilities in songs like �Bully� and �Start a Band� alongside the folksy sounds of �The Long Goodbye� and �Slug Bug�. �This Movie Sucks� is a wild ride from start to finish. Tailor made for anybody longing for the energetic angst of the 2000�s rock scene, but with more mature themes and lyrics. �Honestly the process of making this record has been a dream come true for us," says Austin Durry. "We�ve always recorded in basements, and home studios whenever we could find time and finances to make it happen. But for this record we were finally able to get into a big studio with a completed body of work and just bang out a whole album. It felt so good, and I think that really shines through these songs.�

On the heels of their 8th Opry performance and their Ryman Auditorium debut earlier this year, Akron, Ohio�s �Rustbelt Americana� torchbearers, The Shootouts, release their new album Switchback, on Transoceanic Records. Switchback is The Shootouts� fourth album and the follow up to their acclaimed 2023 release Stampede, landing at #1 album at Alt-Country and #4 on the Americana radio charts. Recorded in Nashville, TN, The Shootouts brought in Grammy-winner Dan Knobler, following his production of Allison Russell�s AMA Album of the Year, Outside Child, to produce, mix and co-engineer Switchback. Already garnering 5-star reviews, Country Music People magazine called Knobler�s craft on Switchback, �astonishingly good production� on a �spectacular album.� Ryan Humbert, whose distinctive lead vocals continue to draw comparisons to Ed Robertson of Barenaked Ladies, along with bandmates Emily Bates, and Brian Poston are joined on the tracks by some of Americana and country music�s most noteworthy players. Switchback opens with the lush fan-favorite �Trampoline,� followed by the high-energy rocker �The Other Side of My Life.� Lindsay Lou, Sam Bush, and Mickey Raphael lend their talents to a rootsy take on the �80�s post-punk classic �Only You,� originally by Yaz, the iconic UK duo of Alison Moyet and Vince Clarke. Two country legends accompany Humbert on vocals, starting with Rodney Crowell on the country folk infused �Half A World Away�; and Vince Gill picking up the pace on an electrifying rendition of �I�ll Be Damned,� a song he penned and recorded in 1980. �Only Good at Goodbye� features a guest vocal by singer/songwriter Logan Ledger, with the renowned Russ Pahl on pedal steel. Switchback finds The Shootouts elevating their palette of traditional country, contemporary twang, rockabilly, and Western swing roots, while maintaining their blue-collar, hard-working ethic.

Time ebbs and flows. Something we cannot control, although we wish we could... Laufey�s third album...A Matter Of Time...is finally here. A Matter of Time is a beautiful masterpiece of introspection about the anguish that comes with life and love. Laufey has captivated a generation with virtuosic songs of love and self-discovery by manifesting her vision of jazz and classical-infused pop music. But after becoming the youngest ever recipient of the GRAMMY for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album (for Bewitched), the Icelandic-Chinese composer, singer, producer, and multi-instrumentalist feels freer than ever to, as she puts it, �let my heart wander.� For her third album, A Matter of Time, Laufey teams with fellow producers Spencer Stewart and Aaron Dessner to break the set of expectations she herself set, serving up a transcendent sound and honest writing that cuts to the heart. It�s the culmination of an incredible journey that began with her playing cello with the Iceland Symphony as a teen before writing her first charting single while studying at Berklee College of Music. Laufey�s many achievements have since grown to include 4.25 billion global streams, a social media audience of 23 million, the biggest jazz LP debut in Spotify history, an album in Billboard�s Top 20, a pile of Platinum plaques, a Forbes 30 Under 30 designation, and, in 2025, being named one of TIME�s Women of the Year. She�s also: sold out the Hollywood Bowl, Radio City Music Hall, and London�s Royal Albert Hall; performed backed by the LA Phil, the National Symphony Orchestra, and the China Philharmonic Orchestra; shared the stage with the likes of Jon Batiste and Raye; and collaborated on record with artists ranging from Beabadoobee to Norah Jones.

There are moments standing on a high ledge where wild space beckons. In that moment, instinct stirs: �What if I just jumped?� It�s been described as �the call of the void,� an experience somehow more primal than even feeling or urge. On new album Precipice (Loma Vista Recordings), Indigo De Souza looks over the creative and spiritual cliff and leaps, taking control of difficult memories and charged emotions via pop bombast and diaristic clarity, and finding a stronger self through the journey.

Lord Huron - the project of Los Angeles-based songwriter, musician and visual artist Ben Schneider, releases their
new album, The Cosmic Selector Vol. 1, via Mercury Records, along with the new single, "Looking Back."

Known for creating "atmospheric music of exquisite craft" (Wall Street Journal), the band began teasing the album in early 2025 with the singles, "Who Laughs Last" and "Nothing I Need."�

Lord Huron's fifth album was written and co-produced by Schneider. Alongside Schneider are band members Tom Renaud, Mark Barry and Miguel Briseno, and a host of collaborators, including actress Kristen Stewart and Blonde Redhead's Kazu Makino. The album title references the mysterious machine featured on the cover art. Schneider asks: "What if you could choose your fate like choosing a song on a jukebox? What if your finger slipped and you got the B-side instead? What if you misunderstood the meaning of the dang song to begin with?"
