New York, NY (Top40 Charts) The GRAMMY Award-nominated songwriter/producer/performer Maggie Rogers shares her new track "So Sick Of Dreaming" from her forthcoming third studio album, Don't Forget Me. The album will be released April 12 via Capitol Records/Universal Music and available for pre-order now (see below for track listing).
Rogers co-produced Don't Forget Me with Ian Fitchuk (Kacey Musgraves, Maren Morris) at Electric Lady Studios in New York City, writing eight of its 10 songs with him and penning two alone. Shawn Everett (Brittany Howard, The War on Drugs) mixed. The album was mastered by Emily Lazar (Beck, Coldplay), who has mastered all of Rogers' albums to date.
"I wanted to make an album that sounded like a Sunday afternoon," explains Rogers. "Worn in denim. A drive in your favorite car. No make up, but the right amount of lipstick. Something classic. The mohair throw and bottle of Whiskey in Joan Didion's motel room. An old corvette. Vintage, but not overly Americana. I wanted to make an album to belt at full volume alone in your car, a trusted friend who could ride shotgun and be there when you needed her."
She recently shared the title track - an intimate reflection on the legacy we create through our relationships.
The accompanying video was filmed in Super 8 in Maine and unfolds with an organic energy akin to the album as it tracks the simple, reassuring rhythms of daily life. Rogers debuted "So Sick Of Dreaming" along with upcoming album tracks "Don't Forget Me" and "The Kill," during her sold-out Summer of '23 North American headline tour, which included stops at legendary venues like Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, Forest Hills Stadium in NYC and the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. Consequence hailed her as "an enchanting and charismatic performer, a firecracker" and noted, "Her songs have a special kind of ferocity and grandeur that is best felt amidst a crowd."
Last month, Rogers announced Part 1 of "The Don't Forget Me Tour" which kicks off May 23 at Gallagher Square at Petco Park in San Diego, CA. Produced by Live Nation, the North American headline run will include stops at The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands, TX, The Pavilion at Toyota Music Factory in Irving, TX and more in addition to Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Colorado, and Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD. The Japanese House, the critically acclaimed project of Amber Bain, will support from May 24 - June 22. See below for full itinerary. Rogers will also perform at the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival.
Rogers recently celebrated the 5th anniversary of the release of Heard It In A Past Life, her 2019 debut album. Heard It In A Past Life entered Billboard's Top Album Sales chart at No. 1 and debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200. Now certified Gold by the RIAA, the album has sold nearly a million copies worldwide and accrued one billion combined global streams. Her 2022 follow up album, Surrender, also earned widespread praise, with Rolling Stone hailing Rogers as a "pop music prodigy...an artist who's in it for the long haul" and Pitchfork noting, "she sounds renewed, submitting to the pull of her heart without apology."
