Happy New Music Friday! It's every audiophile's favorite day of the week, and some of our favorite artists from all different genres have blessed us with new tunes.
Billie Eilish released her sophomore album, Happier Than Ever, and celebrated with an exclusive launch event hosted by Spotify, which showcased a behind-the-scenes look at her new music, as well as the streaming service's first-ever artist hub on-platform. In addition to the album, Happier Than Ever: The Destination features exclusive content like Eilish's personally curated playlists, three new enhanced album experiences, lyrical breakdowns, motion graphics, Q&As, Easter eggs and more.
The evening was a special curation of all three versions of Billie’s enhanced album modes -- Billie Mode, Fan Mode and Lyric Mode -- where fans and celebrity guests like Olivia Rodrigo, Ben Platt, Dove Cameron, Jaden and Willow Smith, Khalid and more had a chance to interact with various songs from the album throughout the glamorous, 1950s-inspired Los Angeles estate.
In other new music releases this week, Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak's Silk Sonic collab dropped their second single, "Skate," Mickey Guyton shared the title track from her upcoming album, Remember Her Name, and Jack Antonoff's band, Bleachers, released their third studio album, Take the Sadness Out of Saturday Night.
Fellow Disney musical stars Cozi Zuehlsdorff and Andrew Barth Feldman teamed up on a sweetly nostalgic duet, "The Old Me & You," Skepta recruited J Balvin for his new track, "Nirvana," and Aly & AJ covered a beloved The National song, "I Need My Girl."
