Sour – Olivia Rodrigo (May)

Happier Than Ever – Billie Eilish (July)
Happier Than Ever is the second studio album by American singer Billie Eilish. For once, we get to see some of the silver linings of the 2020s quarantine, as Eilish cited self-reflection during the COVID-19 pandemic as the biggest inspiration for the album. As usual, the singer co-wrote all the songs with her brother, Finneas O’Connell, who produced the album himself. What a family! 😱
An Evening with Silk Sonic – Bruno Mars and Anderson Pack (November)
Preceded by the success of the single Leave the Door Open, the expectation for this release was major. Consequently, the debut of this album topped charts all over the world. With its vintage lo-fi tone, it has fueled the hype for soul music, and we couldn’t be happier!
30 – Adele (November)
Last, but certainly not least, we got to enjoy the 6 year anticipated new album by Adele. 30 centers on Adele’s divorce, motherhood, fame, heartache, acceptance, and hope. It is a true witness of the artist’s growth and maturity path through the last years. A great hope booster for all!
