FADER described Lily Konigsberg as “unconventional pop perfection” and they couldn’t be more right. It’s already such a huge deal to put out your debut album, it is an even bigger deal for your debut album to be as good as Lily We Need To Talk Now is. ‘Proud Home’ has to be our crown jewel on this record.

Like the rest of the world, we’re obsessed with ABBA! Can you blame us? All these years later and they’re still putting out music that we will be playing on a constant loop. If you’re as excited about new ABBA music as we are, you’ll be pumped to know they have a new album, Voyage, coming out!

We all know The Beatles are one of the greatest bands, if not the greatest band of all time. All of their songs are timeless, and Katy Perry was able to breathe life into one of their best so beautifully.

At this point, Nat King Cole is synonymous with Christmas. The two go together like peanut butter and jelly. Every track on this reimagined record puts us further into the Christmas spirit. Especially ‘The Christmas Song’ which features the earth angel that is John Legend.
Amelia Moore – ‘sweet and sour’
Stream ‘sweet and sour’ here!
If Amelia Moore isn’t on your radar, now is the time to jump on board! After listening to ‘sweet and sour’ we do not doubt that she’s about to blow up. She’s making ‘pop’ music that you really can’t box into that one genre, which is a sign of a truly unique artist.
Amber Van Day – ‘Uh Oh’
Stream ‘Uh Oh’ here!
‘Uh Oh’ might just be our favorite track on this week’s New Music Weekly. The track is giving vocals, it’s giving the beat, and making us want to dance. What more could we ask for? ‘Uh Oh’ is about to be the song you get ready to before going out, it will pump you up!

Has Maggie Lindemann ever steered us wrong? The answer is no! Every song she’s released has been a complete smash. And on this week’s New Music Weekly we’re bringing you her latest work, ‘She Knows It.’ As if we couldn’t think she was more of a kicka** artist, this song takes that to new heights.
Carlie Hanson – ‘Snot’

Carlie Hanson is one of those rare, once-in-a-generation artists that just leave it all in the music. If you listen to her music you’ll get a real sense of who she is, it’s a beautiful thing. And we have to say, this music video is next level!
