Every Monday, we bring you a playlist filled with new tracks the Melodic staff has been listening to on repeat. Hear some of our latest obsessions below:
——
YUNGBLUD, “Lovesick Lullaby” – YUNGBLUD’s newest single is that 90s British pop punk we all know and miss. The English singer-songwriter has just released his newest single “Lovesick Lullaby” on April 25, accompanied by a music video. The track is a mix of chaotic energy and bliss perfectly emulated in the visuals of the video.

——
Kacey Musgraves, “Lost Highway” – Kacey Musgraves is the first artist to sign with the newly relaunched Nashville-based Lost Highway Records – the same label that gave her a shot back in 2011, before Same Trailer, Different Park put her on the map… To mark the occasion, Kacey released a stripped-down cover of “Lost Highway,” the Hank Williams classic the label is named after. It’s a quiet, intentional nod to her roots – and a new beginning.
– Jennifer Touche
——
Sam Fender, “Tyrants” – “Tyrants” is upbeat and perfectly captures Fender’s classic rockstar energy as he sings, “So rail against the tyrants now / The ones who rattle in your head / And make something out of the rain / Raise up a glass to lament the dead.” The single features a catchy guitar solo in the final minute that is sure to get listeners on their feet. It’s no wonder that since its release, “Tyrants” has amassed over 850,000 Spotify listens.
– Ashley Robinson
——
Briston Maroney, “Better Than You” – “Better Than You” is rock’s best friend, containing all there is to love about the electricity and emotion of the genre. From the blood-bumping electric guitar solos to the attention-grabbing, raw vocals, Maroney takes the spotlight as a rockstar who isn’t afraid to show the side of himself that has been eager to be let loose.
