GRAMMY® Award-nominated singer/songwriter Maggie Rogers has today released Notes from the Archive: Recordings 2011 – 2016 — a 16-track retrospective featuring newly remastered versions of her nascent material, including six never-before-heard songs. This special collection closely documents the artistic evolution experienced on the way to creating her acclaimed Capitol Records debut, Heard It In A Past Life.
“So much of this record is about the process,” says Rogers. “It’s about honouring the time it takes to come to a full form…I wanted to give you the chance to hear me grow and hear me make mistakes, hear me change — because all of those pieces are really beautiful parts of my present, and I don’t feel complete without them in the world.”
Along with the six previously unreleased songs, ‘Notes from the Archive’ features newly remastered versions of tracks from Rogers’s early albums, including Blood Ballet and The Echo. In arranging the project’s track listing, Rogers sequenced the songs in reverse chronological order, in an effort to showcase each distinct stage of her creative development.
“I’ve known for a long time that this is something I had to do before I put out another record, because there’s a part of me that’s so deeply missing from the story right now: the 10 years of work that have led up to this moment,” Rogers told Atmos. “I have a whole body of work that I don’t want to leave behind. This record feels like honouring that work, putting the pieces of the story back together, finding my way from bisected to whole. Now, I’ve finally been given the space to let ideas develop and let myself develop. And as I’ve been working on a new record, I see the pieces all coming together and coming full circle.”

Originally from Maryland, Rogers attended New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts and released her breakthrough EP ‘Now That The Light Is Fading’ soon after graduating. Widely hailed as an artist to watch, she released her critically acclaimed Capitol Records debut album ‘Heard It In A Past Life’ in January 2019 and immediately found tremendous success: debuting at #2 on the Billboard 200 and #8 on the ARIA Albums Chart, the album earned praise from the likes of NPR, The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Pitchfork, TIME Magazine, Vogue, and many more. ‘Heard It In A Past Life’ also landed Rogers a nomination for Best New Artist at the 62nd GRAMMY® Awards, and led to performances on major TV shows including ‘Saturday Night Live’, ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’, ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’, ‘Austin City Limits’ and more. In addition, Rogers has sold out headline tours across North America and Europe and performed at leading festivals worldwide. To date, ‘Heard It In A Past Life’ has amassed over 564 million global streams. Rogers is currently at work on her new album.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
