Album Notes & Community Reviews

Co-produced with Rasmus H盲gg of Studio, Sarah Assbring's third album under her solo moniker shifts away from 1960s girl-group pastiche into deeply melancholic, electronic territory. The tracks employ subtle, Balearic-inspired drum loops and echoing synthesizers to frame her delicate, breathy vocal performances. The record offers a sophisticated, slightly darker take on modern Swedish dream pop.
