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:
——
Taylor Acorn, “Goodbye, Good Riddance” – “Goodbye, Good Riddance,” combines Acorn’s signature punk rock vocals with hard-hitting guitars. A powerful expression of strength, growth and defiance, “Goodbye, Good Riddance” tells the story of losing someone who had a negative impact on your life, and rising above the loss.
– Justice Petersen
——
ROLE MODEL and Laufey, “The Longest Goodbye” – Pillsbury’s country influences in his indie-rock tracks make him a noticeable standout within the sub-genre that fans all over the world have fallen in love with. The inclusion of Laufey’s sheer vocal mastery transform the song into a pensive, wistful duet of two broken hearts.
– Sarah Space
——
Maren Morris, “Welcome To The End” – Written about her own experience as a college dropout, the song transforms personal struggles into a powerful anthem. It’s more than just a collaboration — it’s Maren’s way of using music to share honesty and strength with LGBTQ+ youth and beyond, with Antonoff’s incredible production tying it all together.
– Hannah Croteau
——
mgk, “vampire diaries” – mgk is once again proving that he can be successful in any genre with his newest single “vampire diaries.” The follow up single to his smash summer hit “cliché” delivers another dose of catchy lyrics, punchy guitars and drums, and irresistibly poppy energy.
