Surrender is the second studio album by American indie pop singer-songwriter Maggie Rogers, released on July 29, 2022, by Debay Sounds and Capitol Records. It follows the release of her debut studio album, Heard It in a Past Life (2019).

The album features a couple of contributions from notable singers. The track "Shatter" features Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine providing additional vocals and playing tambourine, and "I've Got a Friend" features Clairo and Claud speaking.

The trailer for the Netflix series XO, Kitty was set to "Want Want" from this album.[11][12]

Background and promotion

[edit]

Rogers teased recording sessions for her forthcoming second studio album throughout 2021 into early 2022. She stated that the album would be self-produced and sounded like "feral joy", which is what she would later name her tour in support of the album.[13] In March 2022, Rogers shared a link to a site counting down to March 30. On that day, she announced that her second studio album, titled Surrender, would be released on July 29, 2022.[14] Rogers simultaneously released an album trailer she co-directed with Michael Scanlon.[15] On June 15, 2022, Rogers revealed the album's track listing via Instagram.[16]
