• Told Slant (Felix Walworth): What’s Up is Felix Walworth’s fourth album as Told Slant, the moniker under which, since 2012, they’ve released aching albums of spacious, raw-nerves indie rock. This one is their New York record, a collection of songs about watching your hometown change and feeling the ways it has in turn changed you. It’s a record about commitment to a precarious music life, and all the beauty and indignities that come with it. If the first three Told Slant albums were about self-interrogation and trying to survive as an artist, What’s Up is about what happens once you’ve committed “somewhat maniacally to the project of self expression and subculture in one of the most hostile environments on earth,” as Walworth puts it—and now must contend with all of the people and places and dreams that have died along the way.

• Hannah Pruzinsky: If Hannah Pruzinsky's debut record represented a sinking into a new love with a wide-eyed and vulnerable abandon, Red sky at morning (co-produced with Felix Walworth) reckons with the calm after the torrent, the future it may represent, and the past it may unearth.

• Onlyness: Onlyness is the musical project of upstate New York-based singer-songwriter Rick Spataro, known for his work in the band Florist and his previous moniker, The Firs.
