This Week's Essential Tracks: Our Favorite New Music Releases

Between our daily coverage, our Notable Releases and Indie Basement columns, and our monthly punk and rap roundups, we post tons of new music all the time here on BrooklynVegan. In an effort to keep track of all the new music we’re excited about, we’ve been posting a new playlist each week with many of the songs we love that were (mostly) released that week.

This week’s playlist includes new music by Arab Strap, Olivia Rodrigo, Hyd, Sweeping Promises, mary in the junkyard, Getdown Services, Party Dozen, Kiwi Jr, The Coral, Kelsey Lu, Petey USA, Widemouth, Index, sundayclub, Westside Cowboy, Moses Sumney (ft Kara Jackson), Absolute Lilt, Gurriers, Marbled Eye, wing!, Dent May, Dexy’s Midnight Runners, and Radiohead’s Ed O’Brien.
