Summary
In today’s episode, we walk through five recordings to start 2026 well, spanning instrumental rock, legacy songwriting, punk, acoustic covers, and laid-back folk-pop. We begin with Desert So Green by Winged Wheel, a patient, immersive instrumental project built on texture and momentum, followed by Peter Gabriel’s new single Been Undone, a reminder of his enduring curiosity and craft.
We also spend time with In Remembrance by Capillary, a clean, early-2000s-inspired punk debut; The Golden Heart Protector by Margaret Glaspy, a beautiful and intimate acoustic covers record; and My Second Last Album by Bahamas, one of the most charming and easy-to-live-with releases of 2025.
