Folk pop releases, week 36

This week in folk pop, notable releases and developments include JENNIE's 'Fallen Angel' EP and its accompanying music video, Olivia Rodrigo's 'Daisy Chain Fields' raising funds for women and girls' causes, and Alex Warren's 'Wildchild' topping the ARIA Chart. New projects from Living Hour, AURORA's anniversary celebration of her debut album, and emerging artists featured in the 20 New Songs list highlight the genre's evolving landscape. Collaborations like Kane Brown and Shania Twain's 'Boots' and archival releases such as The Jayhawks' 'Sanctuary Park' reflect both contemporary and historical currents. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift's reflections on her lyrics and Randy Newman's influence, along with John Farnham's cinematic concert release, add depth to the season's musical narrative.
