HAIM Makes It Six For Six With “Don’t Wanna”
HAIM Drops ‘I Know Alone’ HAIM has now released more than half of Women In Music Pt. III (due June 26) and each song has been better than or, at least, as good as the last. The eerily pandemic-appropriate “I Know Alone” remains my favorite cut from the album, but the just-released “Don’t Wanna” comes […]

Premiere: SHY Martin’s “Nobody Likes Moving On”

Sia Drops ‘Saved My Life’ We already know that Sia is one of the best singers and songwriters in the game, but she’s about to add another string to her bow. The Aussie hitmaker has written and directed a new film called Music. Oh, and the most productive person on planet earth also penned 10 […]
Foxes Is Back With “Love Not Loving You”
UK pop star Foxes returns with her first new single in four years.

[…]
