Oct 6, 2023

Some weeks, New Music Friday is more “state of mind” than a capital O occasion. This is not one of those weeks. New albums and EPs are coming at us fast and furious today. Were we able to fit them all in one show? Well, there’s truly only one way to find out, but we can confirm you’ll hear Omar Apollo’s just-dropped EP Live For Me, and Souleance’s latest LP Beautiful.

Plus, NEIL FRANCES’ sophomore album It’s All a Bit Fuzzy is OUT TODAY, and to celebrate we’re giving you a sneak peek of their KCRW: Live From Apogee Studio session coming next week.
