New Reviews for May 31, 2024
Legacy / Sony Music
The veteran country singer balances humor and contemplation on his 75th album.
New West
Another confident late period effort of smart songwriting, guitar wizardry, and surprising vigor.
Warner Records
An impassioned second album from the Grammy- and Golden Globe-winning singer/actress, this neatly deviates from the throwback orientation of the debut.
Sony Music
While the singer and songwriter regularly surprises listeners, this set of covers from the classic Latin rock era is revelatory.

Fantasy
A complete re-recording of the band's debut (and one new song with Brandi Carlile) mixes technicolored loyal takes and guest-featuring revisions.
Verve
On her solo debut for Verve, the Brooklyn-based singer, composer, and producer delivers a poignant, sensuous meditation on the night.
Mom + Pop Music
A more self-assured third album recorded with prior collaborators Benjamin Lazar Davis, Will Graefe, and Christian Lee Hutson.
City Slang
A mesmerizing sophomore LP that draws on the sonics of Mazzy Star, the Velvet Underground, Speedy Wunderground, noise rock, haunted folk, and more.
