2024 will go down in history as having the best music releases. As if we weren’t already in heaven with all the recent releases, this week has given us even more to obsess over. We know how difficult it is to keep up with all the recent hits, and we would hate for you to miss one. So we’ve rounded up a few new songs that we think you’ll be listening to for the rest of the summer. Kick back in the sunshine and allow us to freshen up your playlist!
‘Perfume’ – Pale Waves
It’s time for Pride Month releases, and Pale Waves did not disappoint with ‘Perfume.’ This is the summer for easygoing, lovesick anthems. Bonus points if it’s gay. And Pale Waves are not stopping here. ‘Perfume’ is only a taste of what’s to come on September 20. And if the rest of the album is anything like this first single, we know it will be perfect!

‘Tethered’ – Flor
Flor has released hit after hit this year, and somehow they keep getting better. Following the vulnerable ‘Nosedive’ and the inspirational ‘Kick It,’ flor has come at us with a stunning love song. Flor has admitted that they’re enjoying releasing singles for the joy of music, and it shines through their most recent work. We can’t help but feel their joy right along with them!

‘Point Your Finger’ – Trousdale
Trousdale is our folk-pop dream. This trio is making sure we don’t overlook them with their new song ‘Point Your Finger.’ Between the dramatic chorus, booming harmonies, and their signature neon theme, we can’t look away from them. And with a song this good, who would want to?

‘Goddess Energy’ – Laura Pieri
If you’re looking for songs to add to your girls’ night playlist, this is it. Laura Pieri’s EP Frankie is all about femininity and self-love. Through themes of mythology, Laura created a character (Frankie) to represent her journey to reclaiming her freedom and power. This whole EP is exactly what we need for the summer playlists, but especially ‘Goddess Energy,’ complete with a music video to get you in the mood for a girls’ night out.
