Ooooh, what a MONDAY! This week on Bops & Bangers, the GRRRLs get into some deep conversations about the music industry, T.Swift's latest drama, and if constantly releasing Juice WRLD singles re-opens a painful wound every time for the fans. But don't forget our music discovery and this week is filled with good indie rock from Trophy Wife, the smooth R&B from Pip Millett and nostalgic pop of Ari Raine!

Happy Halloween grrrls! We're so excited to dive into our favorite music with you all on this cold, spooooky Halloween! This week we discuss the music industry's cyclic nature in electronic music, Taylor Swift's marketing team and our disastrous trip to the When We Were Young festival (that got cancelled on us, ugh, still sad). But of course, the MUSIC! We talk about our obsession with Laura Lucas's debut folky EP, the gorgeous single from Giift, and Tove Lo's return to shocking pop bops.

We recorded this episode of Bops & Bangers at 8am, who are we?! But truly, we dive straight into the music we've been loving these past few months. As we deep dive into some folk music with Noah Kahan's latest release, we also bring some pops of sunshine to you with SUNNY.'s newest track "PATH"! Later on in the show, we talk about our adventure seeing Florence + The Machine in San Diego and the magical night that it was!

Bops & Bangers is giggly once again in this week's episode, a few tangents, but let's be real we talk ALL things new music! We talk about Jane Honor's gorgeous new single, "Hole", an indie pop/rock jam, Ashley dives deep into Dermot Kennedy's single, "Innocence & Sadness" and we both GUSH over TSHA's extremely anticipated debut album! 

Later in the episode, we discuss our newest playlist, "Ugly Crying In The Car", we wanted to know what was a song you've cried to (perhaps multiple times) on TikTok, and holy smokes ya'll provided the SADDEST bangers. So we naturally had to talk about our favorites.

Welcome back to Bops & Bangers, we have deep dived into our favorite music of the week, all the while going on side tangents of phrase origins, anxiety with parking at concerts and more!

Later in the episode, Kelsey talks about her experience seeing Fred Again... and Rufus Du Sol at The Gorge in George, Washington -- an experience that you'll want to relive with her!

Fair warning, this is a VERY silly episode. Lots of classic Ashley & Kelsey giggles, all the anxiety, but don't worry we still absolutely talk about music in there too! This week, we talk about the warm cozy folk of Hazlett, UK's Jaz Karis's R&B lofi vibes, and one of the most beautiful songs we've ever heard. 

We also have two new segments with Ashley's "pump it up" pop recommendation while Kelsey wanders to her "weird" corner to recommend the newest album from jazz/electronic artist, The Comet Is Coming.
