Lauren Sanderson released a brand-new album in May titled LAUREN. The first track, “Come Say Sum,” feels like getting hit with the best feeling possible. It has everything you could want. The song has angst, energy beyond belief, and a relatable, hypnotic sensation that leaves the listener wanting more. The bratty attitude behind every word is electric.

It was my first experience seeing this masterpiece from Sweden known as Avatar and it was awe-inspiring. For a warm and rainy Tuesday night show the venue was packed with fans of all ages itching at the chance to witness this gathering. From a full parking lot and a line that seemed to go on for ages, there was a feeling that the evening was going to be full of pure bliss.
