Editors’ Notes At the top of this week’s Superbloom is “Close to You,” a sunny, melodic lo-fi pop single from singer/producer Dayglow. The 21-year-old—who writes, mixes, and performs his own songs out of a spare bedroom in Austin, Texas—says he felt like some of his biggest influences were missing from contemporary pop. “[This song] is an attempt to reference my favorite songs and artists from the mid-’80s, like Michael McDonald, Whitney Houston, Jackson Browne, and Paul Simon,” he tells Apple Music. “I wasn’t hearing a ton of people, at least in my musical bubble, attempting to reference this energy, so I thought I’d give it an earnest try considering it’s all I listen to.” Listen to the song now and add Superbloom to your library to stay up on the songs and artists shaping the future of music.
