Arlo Parks, Ambiguous Desire
Vulnerability is baked into the heartbeat of the British songwriter’s third album with an aching groove lifted to new levels courtesy of the ecstasy of dance music.
José González, Against the Dying of the Light
With his fifth album, the Swedish songwriter considers his deepest of existential queries while maintaining the effervescent, seductive sound that’s the strongest through line in his career.
Courtney Barnett, Creature of Habit
Still flatliningly deadpan, the Australian songwriter uses the back-and-forth fear of the new as a start point for further depth-diving and confession on her fourth solo album.
