Maggie Rogers, the American singer-songwriter, has confirmed that her third album is almost ready. In a recent Instagram post, the 29-year-old shared a snippet of some new material and captioned it with “LP3 is being mixxxxxxed.” This suggests that the album is close to completion and will soon be available for fans to enjoy.
Rogers had previously revealed in May that the album was finished in the studio and just awaited the final touches from the producers. In the new live clip posted to Instagram, the singer-songwriter sits at home behind the piano, intoning a soaring and plaintive ballad.
The lyrics heard in the preview are as follows: “So close the door and change the channel. Give me something I can handle. A good lover, or someone that’s nice to me. Take my money. Wreck my Sundays. Love me til your next somebody. But promise me when it’s time to leave, don’t forget me.”
Rogers released her second studio album, Surrender, in July 2022 to a stream of positive reviews. The album was supported during the artist’s first tour of North America since 2019 at the beginning of 2023.
Far Out gave Surrender a three-star review and wrote: “On the whole, Surrender is at its best when Rogers doesn’t feel the need to go genre-hopping or world-conquering. It’s the smaller moments that make the album special, and thankfully Surrender has enough small magical moments to make up for the occasional misses.” The review added: “Rogers has a bright future ahead of her, with or without the master’s degree, and that makes Surrender a solid sophomore effort from who I’m assuming will eventually be Dr. Maggie Rogers sometime in the future.”
