June McDoom is finally giving us a full album. The Brooklyn dream-folk singer just announced her debut LP, Follow the Light, and she's dropped the lead single "Without You" to set the tone.
If you've been following since her 2022 self-titled EP, this moment has been a long time coming. Those hazy, weightless tracks like "Bright and Bare" hinted at something bigger, and now the full picture is arriving. "Without You" is a stunner: soft, patient, glowing at the edges.
Bing Cao directs the video, matching the track's warm, unhurried mood with visuals that let it breathe. It's the kind of gem that rewards close listening.
McDoom has always worked in shades and textures rather than big gestures, and that restraint is exactly what makes her voice hit so hard. This debut feels like the arrival she's been building toward.
Follow the Light is the record we've been waiting for. Sit with this one. Let it pull you in slow.
