Jesus H. Christ this was a fantastic week for music…
I mean, three of my all time favorite artists Toro y Moi, Future Islands, and Nick Hakim released songs this week. Mac DeMarco also released a breezy track that’s already got me daydreaming of cruising down the highway in the summertime. It can’t be a good musical week without discovering some new artists and Brockhampton, Lisa Hannigan, and Gabriella Cohen filled that never ending void in my heart this week. Plus, y’all already know I’m a huge Star Wars nerd, so when I found out Mountain Goats wrote a song about cannibal jedis, I was all about it. Finally, our pal Ducky released a great new track with Jessica Audiffred which opened my eyes to the fact that trap can go hard and be adorable as fuck at the same damn time. Without further ado, here’s your Tracks of the Week!
