New Wet Leg, Sufjan Stevens, more: The Contenders, Vol. 7


Listen Later

Wet Leg is back with another burst of wildly infectious, frenetic rock. We've got that, the original version of an Oscar-worthy Sufjan Stevens song, and some music that NPR's Tom Huizenga says is "better than Xanax."

Featured artists and songs:

1. Wet Leg: "Catch These Fists," from 'moisturizer'

2. Ashley Jackson: "Unrest," from 'Take Me To The Water'

3. Sufjan Stevens: "Mystery of Love (Demo)," from 'Carrie & Lowell (10th Anniversary Edition)'

4. Alexander Knaifel: "Stanza I-VII," from 'Chapter Eight'

5. George Xiaoyuan Fu: "Passacaglia on a Theme by Radiohead," from 'Colouring Book'
