LA-based artist Magana shares new EP Bad News. Self-described as ‘cozy core’ and ‘winter pop’, Bad News is Magana’s third release in less than a year. On this new EP, Magana continues to expand on growth and change from season to season.
“This EP is the last of what I think of as an interconnected trio of releases. Teeth was made for spring, a period of growth. It was expansive and exploring. DREAMS was made for fall. It was about dusk, the dawning of the restful months. Bad News is made for that period of time between the end of winter and the beginning of spring. Stillness before movement. Each song is about the period of time right before a transition: the realization that change is coming or that it needs to come. As the most lyrically driven of the releases, it is mostly about storytelling. I think of each track as a vignette of a moment in time for four different stories.”

Bad News is the perfect soundtrack for a Winter afternoon as we slowly shift to Spring.
