Weekly Roundup #106
Welcome to Roundup, showcasing the freshest tunes at the moment.
Another week, another roundup. What are you spinning?
Opening Night - Arctic Monkeys
Arctic Monkeys have returned with their first new music since 2022 to spearhead War Child’s Help 2 project, bringing together artists to raise funds for helping children in conflicts. It’s a fantastic track, and a moment to remember why we love the band. This is, however, not the start of the album campaign, with Helders mentioning in a recent interview that they came together just for this cause.
