Florence + The Machine: King

“I am no mother, I am no bride, I am king,” Florence Welch, the beguiling vocalist of Florence + The Machine, belts throughout the London-based indie-rock act’s powerful new song, “King.” The highly anticipated release was accompanied by a supernatural music video with vampiric choreography by Ryan Heffington, regal costuming by Kate and Laura Mulleavy of Rodarte, and captivating direction by Autumn de Wilde.

Kehlani: little story

The second single from Kehlani’s forthcoming third studio album, blue water road, “little story” premieres with a beautiful black and white music video. Kehlani and Alexandra Thurmond co-directed the visuals, which intercut intimate close-ups with scenes of the outdoors, a surrealist violin sequence and a tender conclusion that features the singer’s two-year-old daughter.

Grace Ives has released her first new music since 2019’s DIY-pop album 2nd.

The Brooklyn-based artist was “living in a bed-bug-infested apartment, withdrawing from SSRIs, not sleeping,” when she wrote the vibrant song, adding that “There’s nowhere to go but up.”
