Heavy Rotation: Songs Public Radio Can't Stop Playing

Every month, NPR Music asks our friends from public radio stations across the country for the songs they simply can't get enough of — new tracks by local artists, upbeat remixes of slower songs, recent discoveries from international bands and beyond.

This month's list includes a danceable song by Latin alternative group LADAMA, a remixed jazz number from Braxton Cook, and a new tune by Modern Baseball frontman Jake Ewald.

Haley Heynderickx, 'Oom Sha La La'

From I Need To Start A Garden

When the Tiny Desk EP. That collection of sparsely arranged electric folk songs hinted at tons of promise. Now, she's poised to cash in on that potential with the release of her full-length debut, out in early 2018. And the album's first single, "Oom Sha La La," finds her taking some welcomed risks with a fuller sound, quirky lyrics that include a gardening-related freakout and, as the name suggests, a healthy dose of doo-wop-inspired backing vocals.
