Maggie Rogers on 'Don't Forget Me,' the album she wrote for a Sunday drive

NEW YORK (AP) — Maggie Rogers wrote and recorded her new album, “Don’t Forget Me,” over five days last winter. The songs came quickly and chronologically, as if she was writing “different scenes in a movie.”

“I’ve been writing songs now for 15 years, and so I think I’ve just come into this place where I really trust my process and my craft. I think because of that, I was in a place where I was willing to just play,” Rogers said in a Zoom interview ahead of the album’s release.

The result is a record that Rogers calls “relaxed,” one that finds her “unguarded and present.”
