I’ve got no complaints about today’s edition of Pick Your Poison, especially when it features new music from Jai Wolf (ft. Day Wave), Jenny Lewis, and Laurel Halo. All extremely talented artists worth your time. But also maybe don’t limit yourself to just those three songs, and move beyond the jump for more music from blackbear, COG, Daniel Thorne, Light Conductor, Orla Gartland, Pregnant Women, Reggie Got Beats & Vebjørn Mamen, Rudy De Anda & Hanni El Khatib, and YK Osiris.

Jai Wolf – Your Way (ft. Day Wave)

Jenny Lewis – Heads Gonna Roll

Laurel Halo – Sweetie

Part of me really wanted to start today’s Pick Your Poison by saying that everything was coming up roses. Of course I’m talking about Anna Rose and Rosie Tucker, who are both right at the top of the highlights. After the jump there’s also a song from Esther Rose, so the thematic connection makes perfect sense. But also I’m recommending that you check out the new one from Chicago’s own Walking Bicycles. Need even more music? How about tracks from Dan D’Lion, Dijon, Mitchell Yard, RL Grime & Graves, Seafret, Softcore Untd., ViVii, and Wy.

Anna Rose – Nobody Knows I’m Here

Rosie Tucker – Habit

Walking Bicycles – Fat Cat

In addition to the Super Bowl, Groundhog Day was also last weekend. Traditionally the groundhog predicts six more weeks of winter, but this year we’ve been promised an early spring. Of course putting our collective faith in a rodent to predict the weather feels like a fool’s errand. It’s just nice to keep the hope alive for warmer temperatures and flowers blooming. Maybe the tracks in today’s Pick Your Poison will help put you in a springtime frame of mind, especially as those of us in Chicago continue in a deep freeze. Don’t miss new ones from Bayonne, Justus Proffit, and Patio to kick things off right up top. You’ll find even more after the jump, including songs from Augustine, Bear Grillz (ft. RUNN), Deorro, Far Caspian, Kendoll, Maria Somerville, NO WIN, Prince Fox, and Zsela.

Bayonne – Same (Edit)

Justus Proffit – Hole

Patio – Boy Scout

If you’re not yet sold on the talents of Billie Eilish yet, perhaps her latest single will be the thing that pushes you over the edge in the right direction. Honestly, I was a little underwhelmed with her live show at Lollapalooza last August, as it seemed like she didn’t want to be there, but thinking about it further that might just be her aesthetic. Other highlights in today’s Pick Your Poison come from Beach Slang and Perfume Genius (who does an AMAZING cover of an Empress Of song). Ride on past the jump for more music from Aaron May, Alice Crow Buckly, Baby FuzZ, Ben Hayes, Cautious Clay, DJ Plead, Isaac Dunbar, Shlohmo, and Tim Atlas.

Billie Eilish – bury a friend

One of my favorite things about Pick Your Poison is the diversity of the music being presented. There’s a reason why EDM is paired alongside bands alongside rap alongside country, etc. The main goal is to challenge your perceptions and explore without the confinement of genre. So yeah, you’re seeing Gesaffelstein paired with Lafawndah and Welshly Arms in a 1-2-3 combo you won’t find anywhere else. You might also be interested in the songs after the jump, including ones from Business of Dreams, Jennah Bell, Jerry Williams, k?d, Object Blue, Picture This, Vok, WAVEDASH, and Wintersleep.
