<p class="wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio">Every Friday, we end the week on a good note with a selection of freshly released songs.</p>



<p class="wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio">Here are our new #RecsFriday! (You can also find them on our Instagram and Twitter accounts)</p>



<p class="wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio">From us to you. With love.</p>



<h3 class="wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio wp-block-heading"><em>Lake Superior</em> – Tasha</h3>



<p class="wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">Listening to this song for the first time felt like diving into a memory with <a href="https://www.instagram.com/wowtashawow/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Tasha</a>. She paints such a vivid, precise picture of it that hearing her sing <em>“The blue of that sky / The water cool around our legs”</em> just transports you to Lake Superior, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/CSb-PIhLitH/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">her mom’s hometown in Wisconsin where the music video was shot</a>. It’s melancholic and touching, and whether you’ve been through a similar experience or not, it’s hard not to be moved by her soft voice and tender words. ⬪ <strong>Julia Bergier</strong></p>

<h3 class="wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio wp-block-heading"><em>Before You Gotta Go</em> – Courtney Barnett</h3>



<p class="wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">In this new single from her forthcoming album, <em>Things Take Time, Take Time </em>(November 12), <a href="https://www.instagram.com/courtneymelba/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Courtney Barnett</a> delves into anger, or rather what comes after a fight. We don’t know how it started nor why, but it doesn’t really matter here. It’s the affection she feels for the other person — and how important it is to let them know — that truly counts, which might fade in the background sometimes when we get angry. It’s a sweet reminder, beautifully delivered by the Australian singer-songwriter over a guitar-led melody that will have you nod along throughout the whole song. ⬪ <strong>JB</strong></p>

<h3 class="wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio wp-block-heading"><em>Childhood Bedroom</em> – Ben Platt</h3>



<p class="wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><em>Childhood Bedroom</em> is one of those songs that make me feel like they’ve been written for people like myself. It has all of my favorite ingredients: some softness, relatable lyrics and a catchy melody with 80s vibes that has me on my feet within seconds. In a little bit over 3 minutes, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/bensplatt/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Ben Platt</a> shares his method to escape his worries whenever need be, with a contagious energy and positivity that just make you want to try it, too. So if you need to let off some steam and forget about the world for a moment, it’s definitely a song for that. It’s featured on the American singer’s second album, <em>Reverie</em>, that came out this Friday, August 13. ⬪ <strong>JB</strong></p>

<h3 class="wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio wp-block-heading"><em>Brooklyn</em> – Maisie Peters</h3>



<p class="wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio">Once again, I can blame one of my Friday picks on <a href="https://instagram.com/maisiehpeters" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Maisie Peters</a>’ soft voice and lyrics (and I’m not mad about it at all, quite the opposite). <em>Brooklyn</em> is a bubbly declaration of sisterly love with a really catchy chorus that might play in your head on a loop after you’ve listened to it once. The melody may also make you both want to dance and plan a trip to New York with your sister (or the friend you view as such, after all family isn’t necessarily limited to blood relatives). It was released on August 11 alongside <em>You Signed Up for This</em>, which is also the name of the British singer’s debut album set to come out on August 27. ⬪ <strong>JB</strong></p>
