After two LPs that weaved mellow pop rock and sleek, danceable indie bops — 2019’s Twenty Twenty and 2022’s Decide — he’s taken a heartfelt leap into retro-Seventies and Eighties-loving territory with the impressive The Crux. Djo upgraded the bedroom-recorded sonics of his previous work and booked into New York’s legendary Electric Lady Studios. You can hear his musical growth in the record’s polished production as well as its more personal lyrics, which reflect on love and connection. He wrote or co-wrote every song and co-produced each track alongside Adam Thein, playing many of the instruments himself, from mellotron to percussion.

Laufey is offering fans what is believed to be the first taste of her next project with Thursday’s release of “Silver Lining,” a new single and music video that prefaces her third album, which is expected some time later this year.

“‘Silver Lining’ is a love song about being able to set your true personality free when you fall in love,” Laufey said in announcing the single. “Your inner child comes out and you are emboldened by lust. Even if it takes you to hell, at least you’re with your partner.”

In October 2024, Jason Isbell walked into New York City’s historic Electric Lady Studios with one guitar—a Martin 0-17 from 1940—and a satchel of new songs.

For most of his career Isbell has worked with bands, from his stint in the early 2000s with Drive-By Truckers to many years leading the roots-rocking 400 Unit, but his plan this time was to go completely solo and acoustic. That approach suited the emotional exposure of Isbell’s latest songs, too, which reflect the upheavals from the end of his very public 11-year marriage to songwriter/violinist Amanda Shires.

The result of those solo sessions is Foxes in the Snow, a stunning close-up portrait of Isbell revealing the combination of meticulous craft and searing honesty that has made him one of today’s most revered singer-songwriters.

For Bleachers’ recent world tour, Tobias Rylander was tasked with realizing Antonoff’s vision of bringing a functional replica of Antonoff’s production space at Electric Lady Studios to the stages of Madison Square Garden and the Greek Theater in New York City and Los Angeles, respectively.

“He’s such a staple at Electric Lady that he’s kind of become that room in a way,” Rylander recently told Surface. “Any and all musicians he works with come there.” If you’ve heard a pop hit lately with hazy synths, shimmering instrumentals, vocals best described as ‘haunting,’ and a pulse-quickening bridge, Antonoff has probably had a hand in it; the producer’s collaborators include Lana Del Rey, Sabrina Carpenter, Taylor Swift, and more. “Bleachers fans are what I call educated fans. They know a lot about the band, its music, its history, and they’re usually as much fans of Jack and his work with other artists,” Rylander says. “It becomes a really big family affair.”.

Older (and Wiser), the new deluxe version of singer, songwriter and producer Lizzy McAlpine’s critically acclaimed album, Older, is out today via RCA Records.

“Older (and Wiser) picks up where we left off with Lizzy and the band, building on the foundation we laid when we first began working together on Older in October 2023,” says producer, music director and guitarist Mason Stoops. “After nearly a year of relentless touring, writing, and recording together, Lizzy is ready to share her most honest and vulnerable work yet. She has mastered the ability to guide the band to match her musical and emotional depth—as a producer, fan, and friend, I couldn’t be more proud of her and these songs.”

One of the few true enigmatic artists operating in this age of candid digitalism, Montell Fish is a fiercely creative entity, who tightly fits his cult status pocket; a marauding maverick. Today, (27th September) the singer-songwriter unveils his new album, Charlotte, an expressionistic effigy that cuts deep below its scorched surface.

It’s the second installment of the JCM trilogy that began with 2022’s excellent record Jamie, with this fresh opus a continuation of Fish’s sprawling methodology and philosophical outlook to songwriting. Across the LP—made in close collaboration with Jacob Portrait of Unknown Mortal Orchestra—Fish examines love, ambition, grief and discovery with a fearless poise, thoughtful in his ideas and visceral in his performance atop the genre-spanning sonic palettes.

Claire Cottrill, professionally known as Clairo, has released her third album, Charm, in collaboration with producer Leon Michels. Building on the vintage instrumentation explored in her previous work Sling and revisiting the synth-pop style of her debut Immunity, Cottrill creates an album of dazzlingly delicate indie-pop, so cohesive it presents as a whimsical little world of its own. 

Inspired by a diverse range of influences including jazz singer-pianist Blossom Dearie, cult songwriter Margo Guryon, and iconic bands like the Beach Boys and Harry Nilsson, Cottrill delves into themes of mystery and allure on Charm. This album marks a significant evolution in her musical journey, blending elements from her past albums to showcase a singular artistic vision.

“God Said No” plunges more deeply into the raw, unsettled, often contradictory emotions of a crumbling relationship. Apollo sings about sorrow, regret, doubt and disbelief, along with bitterness, anger and lingering desire. It’s not a clean break with one side to blame; it’s far more complicated.

Teo Halm, one of Apollo’s co-producers on “Evergreen,” is an executive producer (with Apollo) on “God Said No,” which retains and expands that song’s pensive mood. Most of the new album sounds deliberately modest, verging on low-fi. Its tone suggests troubled thoughts and uncomfortable conversations, small-scale and introspective — seemingly private, not overtly theatrical.

Maya Hawke’s discography has consistencies.

Besides her standard but absolutely no less magnificent dreamy vocals and acoustic guitar assisted lullabies, there is her writing, which plunges fearlessly into the cobwebbed corners of her own humanity.

On 2022’s MOSS, she used her poetry as a method of ‘untangling’ all she’d gathered in the couple years prior, and on her third studio album, this practice has become her focal skill. Chaos Angel demonstrates a harmonious awareness of oneself, a meticulous observation of not only the inner workings, but all that’s external and crucial too.

Today, we’re somewhere much more familiar to the artist: Electric Lady Studios, where she’s recorded a majority of the vocals for her latest album, All Born Screaming, out April 26. “I did ‘Hell Is Near’ and ‘Big Time Nothing’ in Studio A,” she says, listing off tracks from the album. “I did ‘Reckless’ in this room. There’s something about doing vocals where you want to feel like it’s for real, and when you’re doing it at your home studio by yourself, you’re like, ‘Well, I could always do it again tomorrow.’

But I witnessed something switch over in her when we met one afternoon at Electric Lady Studios in the West Village, where Clark worked on parts of her last several albums. “This is the room where I recorded the vocals for ‘Violent Times,’ ‘Broken Man’ and ‘Sweetest Fruit,’” she said, referring to songs on the new album. She jumped up from a couch to demonstrate how she’d sung into a particular microphone. Then she got distracted by the studio’s wall of consoles and patch bays.

Michael Stipe is Writing His Next Act. Slowly.

Just before Memorial Day in 2023, Stipe finally committed to barging ahead with his new material. He would spend a week at Electric Lady Studios in Greenwich Village, the legendary recording studio opened by Jimi Hendrix in 1970.

Stipe had booked the studio on the third floor, which opened onto a patio on the building’s roof. One evening, I found him outside in the thick of conversation with two younger musicians he’d just met. They happened to be Jack Antonoff, one of [Taylor] Swift’s producers and among the most prolific operators in pop music, and Matty Healy, the frontman of the 1975.

Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd arrives as a sweeping, confounding work-in-process. It’s full of quiet ruminations and loud interruptions; of visible seams and unhemmed edges, from the choir rehearsal that runs through its opening moments to the sound of the piano’s sustain pedal releasing at its end. Beauty—long Lana’s virtue and her burden—fades or is forgotten, like that titular tunnel, its mosaic ceilings and painted tiles sealed up and abandoned. Here, Lana is after something more enduring, the matters “at the very heart of things”: family, love, healing, art, legacy, wisdom—and all the contradictions and consternation that come along with the pursuit.
