Maggie Rogers has shared “So Sick Of Dreaming,” the latest track from her forthcoming third studio album, Don’t Forget Me. The album will be released April 12 via Capitol Records and is available for pre-order now.
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 energy akin to the calm pace of the album.
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 one of “The Don’t Forget Me Tour” which kicks off May 23 at Gallagher Square at Petco Park in San Diego, CA.
