Maggie Rogers Unveils New Single 'In The Living Room'
The track marks her first new music since the April 2024 release of her critically acclaimed new album, Don’t Forget Me.
GRAMMY® Award-nominated songwriter/producer/performer Maggie Rogers has shared her new single, “In The Living Room.” Released via Capitol Records, the track marks her first new music since the April 2024 release of her critically acclaimed new album, Don’t Forget Me.
Sharing an emotional snapshot from the days when she was “so young and hungry,” Rogers wistfully sings, “But I will always remember you / When we were dancing in the living room.” She wrote and produced the song with Ian Fitchuk (Kacey Musgraves, Maren Morris), who also collaborated with her on Don’t Forget Me. The poignant official video for “In The Living Room,” directed by Grant Singer (Sam Smith, The Weeknd), brings to life Rogers’ recollections, shifting fluidly between the past and present.
Said Rogers, “I wrote ‘In The Living Room’ in March 2023, a few months after writing Don't Forget Me. My co-writer/co-producer, Ian Fitchuk, and I were back in the studio and decided to try for one more song. Like so much of the album, it's a song about the beauty and pain of memory, and the way that interweaves with reality when you're processing the exit of a person in your life. Ultimately, Don't Forget Me as an album is about how we remember people, and the stories we tell ourselves in the process of creating new realities."
Rogers will kick off her first-ever arena outing tomorrow, October 9, at Moody Center in Austin, TX. “The Don’t Forget Me Tour, Part II” will include two shows at New York City’s Madison Square Garden (October 19 + October 20) Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena (October 12) and an evening at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, CA (November 2). Ryan Beatty will support on all dates. See below for the full itinerary. For tickets and all tour information, please visit shop.maggierogers.com/pages/tour . As with her “Summer of ’23 Tour,” Rogers went old school for her fall tour, using in-person ticketing to get tickets directly into the hands of fans. She will also perform at Austin City Limits Music Festival on Saturday, October 12.

Rogers is touring in support of her new album, Don’t Forget Me, which was hailed by The New York Times and Rolling Stone as one of the “Best Albums of the Year (So Far).” Pitchfork said, “The singer-songwriter’s third album is her strongest yet, the sound of a wise, clear-eyed, melodious prodigy coming into her own voice.” The title track, “Don’t Forget Me,” topped Billboard’s Adult Alternative Airplay chart, marking Rogers’ fourth No. 1 on the tally. Vulture and Billboard included “Don’t Forget Me” on their “Best Songs of The Year (So Far) lists. She will perform songs from the album on “Austin City Limits” on October 12th on PBS.
