Maggie Rogers & Sylvan Esso – “Anthems For A Seventeen Year Old-Girl”

Do you like Canadian indie-rockers Broken Social Scene? Are you a fan of their 2003 jewel You Forgot It In People? Well thanks for stopping by because you’re in for a treat today as the fine people of Arts & Crafts have taken it upon themselves to curate Anthems: A Celebration Of Broken Social Scene’s You Forgot It In People [out June 6], led by the beautiful cover of track 7 “Anthems For A Seventeen Year Old-Girl.”

Leaning into the simplistic nature of the original, collaborators Maggie Rogers and Sylvan Esso enhance the alt-indie cut with an ear on contemporary thrill. Not to be overshadowed by the poignant lyricism, the update mobilizes a nuanced bounce before billowing over into a full-fledged climax modern moods will appreciate.
