Following her debut release last year, Nora Karlsson - aka Boys - is taking Love On Tour with her second EP.
"Happy Hour" is the first track to be shared from the upcoming EP. Written in a haze of post-tour depression, the track voyages through an enduring desire for an adventure gone by with a sugar-sweet optimism.
Combining lo-fi aesthetics with bounding chorus hooks, "Happy Hour" rings with a tangible longing. The trip might be over, the familiar may seem oddly vacant, but for three and a half minutes, the dream doesn't have to be over just yet.
The follow up to Kind Of Hurt, Love On Tour is released via PNKSLM Recordings on 20 May.
