Throughout the week, we update our Best New Songs playlist with the new releases that caught our attention the most, be it a single leading up to the release of an album or a newly unveiled deep cut. And each Monday, we round up the best new songs released over the past week (the eligibility period begins on Monday and ends Sunday night) in this best new music segment.
On this week’s list, we have Magdalena Bay’s infectious, magnificent new song ‘Death & Romance’; Charly Bliss’ ‘Calling You Out’, which trades out the band’s indie rock for Carly Rae Jepsen levels of glimmering, addictive pop; Martha Skye Murphy’s stark, yearning new single ‘IRL’; Mabe Fratti’s beautifully elastic ‘Enfrente’; Margaux’s gentle, poignant new song ‘What Could I Say?’, lifted from her upcoming album Inside the Marble; and Katy Kirby’s ‘Headlights’, a weary, affecting track from the deluxe edition of her latest album Blue Raspberry.
