The Power Popaholic Top 25 EPs of 2025

Each year I need to explain that an EP to me is more than 2 songs and less than 10 songs. Many great EPs came out last year, and a late entry that literally “slipped under my radar” was Robert Harrison’s return as Future Clouds and Radar. As part of the memorable power pop juggernaut Cotton Mather, he has always been a special talent. He ranks high this year, and also of note; the band Shake Some Action appears in both my album and EP list.

1. 1. The Vibeke Saugestad Band “The Sun Sessions”
   2. Future Clouds and Radar “Big Weather”
   3. Peter Baldrachi “Nothing’s Promised”
