I do.”Nervous about running into an ex out shopping, she admits,“I’m afraid that I don’t like December.”It’s a relatable portrait of what it’s like to notreallywant to go home for the holidays, and it’s also indicative of her unique and uncanny perspective as an emotionally acute Gen-Z songstress.

- Katie Tupper announces her debut album Greyhound will arrive on January 21 with the release of her new single “Right Hand Man.” Often receiving comparisons to Olivia Dean and Charlotte Day Wilson, Tupper’s smoky alto voice wraps together soul, indie and alternative R&B with just a touch of folky twang. Born in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Greyhound will bring the prairie roots of Tupper’s past to meet the blended and expanded worldview of her present. On her upcoming debut, Tupper shares, “Greyhounds that race on tracks are given these parameters and rabbit decoys to chase that are unreachable. If the front/fastest dog gets close to the decoy it just speeds up to make them run faster. The dogs think they are chasing something reachable but by design it will always be slightly ahead of them. It made me think about my relationships and how I act in the world. I am often both the Greyhound and the decoy — chasing something unreachable and being the thing that cannot be caught.”
- Alice Phoebe Lou today releases the official video for “Mind Reader” from her new album Oblivion. Released last month via Nettwerk Music Group, the radiant, self-produced album sees Alice reach past the unrelenting noise of modern life.

On the EP, Stephen shares,“Dress & Tie was born out of love for one another and a shared pursuit of real love songs in a world full of failed attempts. These songs were written from a place of passion over pressure, telling our story alone. We both wholeheartedly hope you find yourselves endlessly inspired by the magic of these songs in a world that has seemingly forgotten that love is still simply this: attainable, beautiful, wonderful magic.”
- Nearly five decades after its original release, The Rolling Stones celebrate their groundbreaking 1976 album Black and Blue with a definitive Super Deluxe Box Set, available now worldwide via Interscope/UMe.
