Every Friday at 10 pm The Current's David Safar gives you a tour of all the new music that has dropped in the past week on New Hot. But since there is such a wealth of new music that has dropped today, The Coffee Break also has a new music focus!

Let's get into this celebration of new music in the way we do best - by letting you choose what you will hear on The Current Morning Show with Jill Riley! You can choose from the new albums from Prince, Billie Eilish, Bleachers, Lump, Yola, Charlie Parr, and more.
