Blinding The Weeknd

The Weeknd's latest chapter, After Hours which features the global hits "Heartless" and "Blinding Lights" is due to release on March 20th, via XO/Republic Records. Filtering R&B, pop, and hip-hop through an ambitious widescreen lens, quietly took over popular music and culture on his own terms. As a result, the multi-platinum two-time GRAMMYr Award winner has emerged as one of the most successful and significant artists of the 21st century.

Boasting 20 years as Australia’s most trusted, enduring and popular compilation, it’s with great delight we herald the release of So Fresh: The Hits Of Winter 2020. Packed with 23 of the most popular tracks of the season, this addition to the series is one of the strongest ever; boasting the 11-week #1 mega-smash ‘Blinding Lights’, alongside ‘Roses’ – another #1 banger. So Fresh staple names such as Lady Gaga, Katy Perry and Sam Smith make welcome appearances in the roll call of megastars – alongside breaking acts Alexander 23, Noah Cyrus and Benee – alongside pure pop future classics like ‘Sunday Best’ and ‘Breaking Me’; topped with world-beating global acts from AU Tones & I, Tash Sultana and Birds Of Tokyo.
