Sour Widows – “Lucky Star”
"Lucky Star," the new song from the Bay Area alt-rock duo Sour Widows, is not a Madonna cover. Back in 2024, Sour Widows had a single called " Cherish ," and that wasn't a Madonna cover, either. At this point, Sour Widows should really just work their way down the entire Immaculate Collection tracklist and repurpose every title. The strategy seems to be working out for them.

Sour Widows, a Bay Area alt-rock duo, have released their latest single "Lucky Star" from their upcoming album Sigil. The track is not a Madonna cover, despite the duo's previous single "Cherish" not being one either. The band's strategy of repurposing Madonna titles seems to be paying off. "Lucky Star" is the lead single from Sigil, following the release of "Blood In The Grass."
The album is the first for Sour Widows since losing a member and becoming a duo. They recorded it with producer Melina Duterte, also known as Jay Som. "Lucky Star" is described as an impressive rocker that builds to an explosive finale of clangy guitars. The music video for the single, directed by bandmates Maia Sinaiko and Susanna Thomson, is available for viewing.
