Today, we got the second preview of Maggie Rogers' upcoming sophomore album, and it's our new Big Obsession.
"Want Want" arrived Wednesday along with a hazy, VHS-like accompanying video. In April, the singer officially returned from silence with her lead single "That's Where I Am," from her upcoming full-length Surrender, which will arrive July 29 via Capitol Records.
"'Want Want’ started in Maine during the pandemic in a small studio assembled over my parents’ garage," recalls Rogers. "I wrote and produced it with my old bandmate, Del Water Gap. It was really just about the fun of it all. Some bubblegum world to escape to in the middle of the isolation and darkness. The song found its final form over the next year and a half, editing and re-editing with Kid Harpoon until we found the perfect knock-your-teeth-out drums, the right growl of the guitar tone."
