The latest in new music from Mitch Sanders, The Favors, Raghd, Die Spitz & more in this week’s 1883 On Rotation playlist.
On rotation this week, emerging artist Mitch Sanders has shared the glorious new track, “Emotion Kicks”. There’s soaring vocals, rich sonics, and every moment is simply infectious. It’s no wonder he’s already collaborated with producer Catherine Mars (Boygenius, Foals, Wolf Alice), Declan McKenna, and Flyte. Keep an eye on this artist.
Acclaimed solo artists FINNEAS and Ashe have come together to form a new project, The Favors. The band have shared their incredibly tender single, “The Hudson”. It’s full of soft piano, slow-building percussion, gritty harmonies and a lush guitar solo. Their vocals intertwine so effortlessly, it’s simply a joy to listen to. The Favors’ debut album The Dream releases on September 19th via Darkroom Records.
Mancunian singer-songwriter Lusaint has released a new track called “Summertime”. Aptly named, the song’s production is warm, and the artist seamlessly blends jazz and soulful undertones throughout. Speaking on the release, Lusaint says: “Summertime is about the ache of wanting someone who won’t give you clarity — that quiet, stubborn hope we hold onto even when we know better.”
Irish songwriter Darren Kiely has unveiled his new track, “Married On My Phone”. It’s a sweet folk-pop tune which thematically puts a modern twist on the classic theme of struggling to accept that an ex has moved on.
25-year-old artist, producer and director Raghd is a creative powerhouse. The Swedish artist has just dropped her new track “Bitches I Hate”. There’s rap, club beat pulses, heavy kicks, and brilliant dynamics. Speaking about the song, she said: “The ‘bitches’ in question move loud, act entitled and fold under pressure. No names needed – it’s very self-explanatory.”
London artist Babymorocco is back with the deluxe version of his debut LP, Amour: The Jean Paul Deluxe. It includes several new songs, including the intoxicating club-ready track, “The Boys and The Girls”.
New York City group Grumpy have released their new track, “Crush”. It’s an Indie-rock gem with acoustic guitar, mid-tempo drums, and electronic textures. The band has just announced their new EP Piebald which lands September 26th via Bayonet Records.
Finally, the Texan four-piece band Die Spitz have revealed the impactful new single, “Throw Yourself to the Sword”. The band say that this new single is a high-energy ode to what they want young people to feel. Undoubtedly, it’s a heavy rock experience with real bite. Their new album Something To Consume drops on September 12 via Third Man Records.
