Surrender review | Maggie Rogers at her most authentic

★★★★☆
Maggie Rogers has found her inner rockstar. Three years after her polarising debut ‘Heard It in a Past Life’, the singer who first rose to prominence from a video featuring Pharrell, has settled into an identity after a nascent rise to pop stardom. She’s rid herself of the softness and often sanitised, benign aesthetic of her debut and launched into raucous rock, strutting blues riffs and unapologetic stadium pop hooks.
