This week’s New Music Friday for Friday, Aug. 23 brings an eclectic mix of fresh releases from across the musical spectrum.

Indie rock fans will be thrilled with Fontaines D.C.’s new album “Romance.”

Kishi Bashi, who collaborated with past podcast gust Tall Tall Trees releases “Kantos” delivers a lush and intricate soundscape that blends orchestral elements with his unique brand of indie pop, offering a truly immersive listening experience.

Country superstar Thomas Rhett, fresh off a “Today” show appearance, is out with “About a Woman.”
