‘Sometimes, Forever,’ has been described as “Soccer Mommy’s boldest and most aesthetically adventurous work yet; a mesmerizing collection that feels both informed by the past and explicitly of the moment. It is some of her most sophisticated song writing to date. Inspired by the concept that neither sorrow nor happiness is permanent. Sometimes Forever is a fresh peek into the mind of an artist who synthesizes retro sounds, personal tumult and the relatable disorder of modern life into original music that feels built to last.”
Soccer Mommy has previously toured with the likes of Vampire Weekend , Wilco, Paramore and Liz Phair and has toured with Haim and War on Drugs this year as well as playing at End of the Road and Leisure Festivals.
