October is finally here – and with spooky season just around the corner comes warm fireplaces, autumn foliage, and everything else necessary to create the quintessential fall. But all of these factors pale in comparison to the perfect soundtrack to pair with them – and this week’s new releases have got you covered for just that. Between an incredible collaboration from Kacey Musgraves and Noah Kahan, brand-new albums from alt-pop darling Claire Rosinkranz and experimental rising star Hania Rani, and more, the first week of October is packed with hits to add to your fall playlist.

Noah Kahan, “She Calls Me Back (with Kacey Musgraves)”

Breakout singer-songwriter Noah Kahan shares a brand-new version of his fan-favorite track “She Calls Me Back,” this time featuring a verse from six-time-Grammy-winning country superstar Kacey Musgraves. Adding a new point of view to the song, Musgraves’ second verse acts as a conversational back-and-forth with Kahan’s original message – “You love me, and I don’t know why / I only call you once a week.” Musgraves and Kahan are undeniably two of this generation’s most authentic musical storytellers, making this collaboration a must-listen.

Holly Humberstone, “Kissing In Swimming Pools”

British indie-pop rising star Holly Humberstone is back with the latest single from her upcoming debut album Paint My Bedroom Black out Oct. 13. “Kissing In Swimming Pools” is a chilling love song showcasing Humberstone’s enchanting lyricism as she combines universal emotions with incredibly specific experiences, resulting in a feeling any listener can identify with.

Aidan Bissett, “Supernova”

Exactly one year after the release of his debut EP I’m Alright If You’re OK, Aidan Bissett returns with his latest project, Supernova, chronicling the ups and downs of romance and heartbreak. Each of the EP’s seven tracks showcase his strengths as an artist – not just vocally and sonically, but lyrically and emotionally. Bissett also released a poignant music video for the EP’s closing track “How’s It Gonna End?” alongside the project.

Claire Rosinkranz, “Just Because”

When California native Claire Rosinkranz emerged onto the music scene with her gold-certified independent breakout hit “Backyard Boy,” she was just 16 years old. Three years later and with over a billion streams under her belt, the rising star is still crafting addictive alternative pop anthems. Now, she’s back with her debut album Just Because featuring hit tracks that cement her status as a Gen Z star to watch.

Hania Rani, “Ghosts”

Composer, pianist, and singer-songwriter Hania Rani is back with her third studio album Ghosts – a deep examination of life and death inspired by her stay at a haunted sanatorium. The project features experimental uncharted sonic territory including textured soundscapes and growling synths, layered over Rani’s spellbinding vocals and lyrics.
