41 songs we like from August 2018

Between our daily coverage and our Notable Releases and Bill’s Indie Basement columns, we post tons of new music all the time here on BrooklynVegan. In an effort to keep track of all the new music we’re excited about, we’ve been posting a new playlist each month with many of the songs we love that were (mostly) released that month.

Our August 2018 playlist includes new tracks by boygenius (aka Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker and Lucy Dacus), Big Red Machine (aka Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon and The National’s Aaron Dessner), Cat Power, Mitski, Tirzah, Empress Of, Moses Sumney, Yves Tumor, Foxing, mewithoutYou, Cloud Nothings, The Beths, Public Practice, Lindstrom, Robyn, Nicki Minaj, Aphex Twin, Trevor Powers, Baby Dayliner, Hollie Cook, Jade Bird, Laura Jane Grace, Windhand, Thou, and more.
