Bop Shop: Songs From Katy Perry, Joywave, The Marías, Wonho, And More
Prior to forming the alt-pop band The Marías, singer María Zardoya and drummer-producer Josh Conway grew up admiring the films of directors like Pedro Almodóvar and Wes Anderson, each with their own singular, colorful styles. The group’s forthcoming album, Cinema, is infused with a mutual passion for the screen, including the hypnotic lead single “Hush.” The track entrances with a minimal electronic beat and almost blasé, sometimes whispered kiss-offs, while the visual is reminiscent of giallo-era Italian horror. Decadent blood-red tones suggest something delightfully sinister is at work. —Coco Romack You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.
