Lonely Road

I was unfamiliar with Natalie Bergman and discovered her new material while combing through this post by Jason Morehead about some of his favorite songs of 2025. This track leads off Bergman's 2025 release, My Home Is Not In This World. It's got a Brill Building pop sound to it, in both instrumentation and theme, with all the classic soul and girl-group feels that come with that. Despite being such a strong beginning to the album, "Lonely Road" doesn't have a proper video for it, unlike some of the other tracks on the album. This performance is the first chapter of a performance from KCRW, complete with a full band who are able to do justice to the song's lush composition.
