Ah, October. A time for spooky festivities, watching the leaves change color and snuggling up to a warm cup of coffee or whatever your hot beverage of choice is.

And what better way to enjoy these activities than listening to some of the albums the month has in store?

October has plenty of releases on the horizon. From a funk legend’s first album in four years to a debut album from a rising Memphis rap star, these are some of the albums we’re excited to hear in October.

LEON BRIDGES – ‘LEON

GLORILLA – ‘GLORIOUS’

We’ll see soon.

BOOTSY COLLINS – ‘ALBUM OF THE YEAR #1 FUNKATEER’

It’s truly incredible that one of the greatest and most influential bassists of all time is still creating music. Funk maestro Bootsy Collins will be releasing his first album in four years, Album of the Year #1 Funkateer, later this month. Having presumably made younger fans through a handful of features with contemporary artists in recent years — Kali Uchis, Anderson .Paak — both old and new generations will soon be able to bask in some new funk from Bootsy.
