On today’s Arts24 music show, Jennifer Ben Brahim brings us a roundup of upcoming album releases to add to your summer playlists. From the return of indie sleaze icons The Strokes, who are set to release their first album in six years, “Reality Awaits”, to a British pop star hoping to recreate the success of her 2024 record Brat – the album that sparked the viral internet trend dubbed “Brat Summer”. Her seventh album, Music, Fashion, Film, features musician John Cale, designer Marc Jacobs and filmmaker Martin Scorsese on the cover. Here’s the single “Wink Wink”.
We also bring you interviews with Franco-Cuban twins Ibeyi, who have released their sun-soaked album “Offering”, as well as French rising star Aupinard, who is touring festivals this summer with his debut album “spleen. social club”.
