Essential Full-Length Releases
 DAWN - new breed Maybe it's due to Mardi Gras, but I feel like I've been learning a lot about the culture of New Orleans and Mardi Gras recently. Members of Arcade Fire recorded a version of "Iko Iko" (you know the melody even if you don't know the song), and there's this fifth album from Dawn Richard. The artist explore her home city on the record, which includes references to Mardi Gras Indians. Watch: "jealousy" Watch: "sauce" |

 Leyla McCalla - Capitalist Blues This is the third album from this talented folk cellist. The Capitalist Blues will not be her only album of 2019, though.

 Better Oblivion Community Center - Better Oblivion Community Center This album from Phoebe Bridgers and Conor Oberst was released with fairly little press ahead of the record, but did not come from nowhere.
