Friko Release New Song ‘If I Am’

Friko have anounced a deluxe edition of their debut LP, Where we’ve been, Where we go from here. It’s out November 22 via ATO, and it features 11 bonus tracks, including studio outtakes, live recordings, a cover of My Bloody Valentine’s ‘When You Sleep’, and a new song called ‘If I Am’. Listen to it below.

“‘If I Am,’ along with the rest of the other new songs on this expanded edition, go back as far as 2019,” Friko explained. “They were some of the first songs we played at DIY and small club shows in Chicago. They kind of got left behind after we had written the songs for the record but we’re so glad they’re getting to see the light of day because they were some of the first songs we wrote as a band.”

Good Looks Share New Songs ‘Damage Control’ and ‘Chase Your Demons Out’

Good Looks have dropped two new songs, ‘Damage Control’ and ‘Chase Your Demons Out’. The double A-side single follows the band’s sophomore album Lived Here for a While, which came out in June. Take a listen below.

“I wrote this song in two parts – the first during a rough patch in the relationship, and the second after we finally broke up,” Tyler Jordan said of ‘Damage Control’ in a statement. “I was listening to a lot of Big Star when I started writing, and you can definitely hear their influence in the chord progression. It’s not the most gracious breakup song, but it’s a photo of a feeling and a moment in time.”

Written around the release of Good Looks’ 2022 album Bummer Year, ‘Chase Your Demons Out’ is about how the group’s members were older than most of their indie rock peers releasing a debut album. “That gave us some distinct advantages in being ready for the road ahead,” Jordan explained. “This song is about standing on the edge of the future, feeling prepared for a moment you’ve been working toward your whole life.”

Romy and Sampha Team Up on New Song ‘I’m on Your Team’

Romy and Sampha have joined forces for a new song, ‘I’m on Your Team’. The British musicians recorded the track with co-producer and composer Thomas Bartlett. It arrives with a video filmed at the London-based artist workers’ cooperative Not/Nowhere. Check it out below.

“It’s a love song but lyrically, it’s honest and truthful,” Romy said in a statement. “Like, ‘we’ve had the magic and dreaminess but now we’ve been through things together, so here we are and I’m putting in the work.’”

Sampha added, “I love the idea of being part of a team, that you have to show up for each other, and from there you can create an even deeper connection.”

Romy released her debut solo album, Mid Air, in 2023. Sampha’s most recent LP, Lahai, also came out last year. Earlier this year, the pair covered André 3000 together.

Sharon Van Etten Announces New Album With the Attachment Theory, Shares New Single ‘Afterlife’

Sharon Van Etten has announced a new album written and recorded with her backing band, The Attachment Theory, which comprises Jorge Balbi (drums, machines), Devra Hoff (bass, vocals), and Teeny Lieberson (synth, piano, guitar, vocals). Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory is out February 7, 2025 via Jagjaguwar, and the new single ‘Afterlife’ is out now. Check it out below, and scroll down for the album cover and tracklist.

“For the first time in my life I asked the band if we could just jam,” Van Etten said in a press release. “Words that have never come out of my mouth – ever! But I loved all the sounds we were getting. I was curious – what would happen? In an hour we wrote two songs that ended up becoming ‘I Can’t Imagine’ and ‘Southern Life.’”

Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory was recorded at The Church, Eurythmics’ former studio in London, with producer Marta Salogni. “Sometimes it’s exciting, sometimes it’s scary, sometimes you feel stuck,” Van Etten said of the creative process. “It’s like every day feels a little different—just being at peace with whatever you’re feeling and whoever you are and how you relate to people in that moment. If I can just keep a sense of openness while knowing that my feelings change every day, that is all I can do right now. That and try to be the best person I can be while letting other people be who they are and not taking it personally and just being. I’m not there, but I’m trying to be there every day.”

Van Etten’s most recent album was 2022’s We’ve Been Going About This All Wrong.

Circuit des Yeux Releases New Single ‘GOD DICK’

Circuit des Yeux, the project of Chicago singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Haley Fohr, is back with a new single titled ‘GOD DICK’. It’s billed as a “connective sonic link” between Circuit des Yeux’s last album, -io, and its follow-up due new year on Matador. Check it out below.

“’GOD DICK’ serves as a sort of chrysalis function, it’s passage leading from the past toward things to come,” Fohr explained in a statement. “It’s sweaty, exponential, cacophonous, growing, symphonic, and relentless. I wrote this as an effort to embody a state of change fueled by deep wanting. I sonically (and visually) imagined something huge hiding in a skin much too small for it – a kind of love banshee bursting through porcelain skin one hair at a time until finally, the beast within is fully on display.”

Ezra Furman and Alex Walton Collaborate on New Single ‘Tie Me to the Train Tracks’

Ezra Furman and Alex Walton have teamed up for a new single, ‘Tie Me to the Train Tracks’. It’s out now via Bella Union alongside a B-side called ‘Beat Me Up’, which features vocals by Walton. Take a listen below.

“We made this song in a burst of neurotic passion at her old house in Roxbury, Boston one chronically-ill afternoon,” Furman said in a statement. “The chains of luv had got us in their mortal grasp and it all came pouring out. And there’s a B-side (‘Beat Me Up’) too, out of this miniature masochistic fragment I’d made up which she then made into a brilliant full song, played and recorded entirely by her, that hits hard and leaves a mark. I don’t know how she does it but I feel lucky to do it with her.”

Alex Walton added: “It was an honour and a privilege to not only work with Ezra, but to have her in my house, writing and recording together, going to the porch with cigarettes and notebooks in our hands, trying to contextualize everything. We wanted to make something stripped down, noisy, harsh, but still delicate, beautiful, frail. I think we achieved this.”

Sophie Jamieson Shares Video for New Song ‘Camera’

London-based singer-songwriter Sophie Jamieson has shared a new single, ‘Camera’. It’s the second preview of her upcoming second album, I still want to share, and arrives with a video co-directed by Jamieson and Malena Zavala. Check it out below.

“I wrote this song when my heart was broken and I was trying to hold everything when it didn’t want to be held,” Jamieson explained in a statement. “I wanted to be able to draw an outline around the pieces, fit them into a frame. Something in me knew that I’d find some peace if I just let things stay blurry, but everything in me wanted to find some focus. This song is the yearning, wrenching of trying to define a love that was less simple, more layered and less graspable than I could accept.”

I still want to share is out January 17 via Bella Union. It was led by the single ‘I don’t know what to save’. Revisit our Artist Spotlight interview with Sophie Jamieson.
