Don't Forget Me

Don't Forget Me is a sharp turn away from the shimmering, synth-heavy textures of Maggie Rogers' previous work, landing instead in a dusty, sun-soaked landscape of 90s-inspired folk rock. It feels like a record made in a room with windows open, capturing the specific warmth of analog tape and the loose energy of a band playing in real-time. There is a sense of ease here that wasn't present before; the songs breathe with a relaxed, mid-tempo stride that evokes the classic adult contemporary radio of Sheryl Crow or Bonnie Raitt.
