On August 3,2018 new and upcoming indie rock band, lovelytheband, released their debut album 'finding it hard to smile.' The band who are from Los Angeles formed in 2016 with members Mitchy Collins (vocals), Jordan Greenwald (guitar), and Sam Price (drums) after meeting through mutual friends. July 2017 marked the release of their debut single titled 'Broken.' The single quickly garnered over 3 million streams on Spotify and kick started the bands transition onto mainstream radio. It's a song you more than likely have heard and just never knew who the artist was...until now! And of course with a fanbase name of the "lovelies" who wouldn't love this band.

'finding it hard to smile' features the singles 'broken' and 'these are my friends' both which placed in the top 100 in alternative songs. The album itself contains songs that were featured on the band's first EP as well as new tracks the fans will thoroughly enjoy! Songs such as; 'Coachella', 'alone time', 'your whatever', and 'everything I could never say...to you' provides Collin's soothing vocals which cause a very relaxed, easy-listening experience. With music that sounds straight out of a young adult romance movie or songs you would listen to on a summer drive with the windows down, lovelytheband have created an album that fans of many different genres will enjoy. The main theme of lovelytheband's music focuses on loneliness and everyday struggles of being in an relationship and they aren't afraid to explain that life can be hard. Giving off a slight vibe from the band The 1975, the albums title track begins with a slow tempo which brings the pace of the album up as the song 'pity party' begins to play. As the album comes to a close, so does the pace of the album with slower songs like 'everything I could never say...to you' concluding the album. All the songs sound like radio hits which, for a band who have only been around a short 2 years and only having 1 album is amazing! Expect much more from this band as they are definitely, without a doubt, going to take over the world! This is a band that music fanatics will appreciate for the catchy lyrics, relaxing beats and of course, songs that won't be skipped when put on shuffle!
After making a few radio station concert events (featuring a performance at Lollapalooza Aug. 4th) make sure to catch lovelytheband on tour beginning August 15 in Toronto, Ontario and ending November 17, in Italy.
