Sigrid returns with news of her forthcoming EP, The Hype
Sigrid also shares the new single "Ghost" which follows on from previous single, "The Hype". These are Sigrid's first releases since her second album, How To Let Go, came out last year.
Inspired by everything from UK electronic pop to a Nashville trip this year, the Norwegian award winning pop star Sigrid today announces The Hype.
At the beginning of 2023, the critically acclaimed global pop star found herself getting back to basics, writing new songs in studios from London to Oslo. Taking back the reins of the writing process; writing lyrics and melodies that felt connected to her roots as one of the biggest breakthrough Scandinavian pop stars of her generation, the 27-year-old has reflected on the past six years of being thrust into superstardom.
“Ghost” lifted from the EP, hones in on Sigrid’s ability to write both a classic pop song that retains its power with and without huge pop production.
Co-producing The Hype EP with Nick Hahn, Sigrid bought Askjell Solstrand, Ian Fitchuk, Seth Mosley and Foy Vance on board to collaborate on the initial versions.
