LIST PICK

SELMER BEFORE YOU MARRY A PERSON

The latest single from Selmer, Oslo’s most promising new talent, is a nostalgic trip through an addictive soundscape. ‘Before You Marry A Person’ proves his ability to craft poignant tracks that double up as summery indie-pop bangers, while also taking on the very unique influence of a school band at a 1960s prom. Lyrically, the track takes on the heteronormative ideal of marriage expectations: “It’s a song about being in love as a kid and about overthinking the importance of relationships as a nine-year-old.”. Having already turned heads with ‘New Me’ this year, we should all be excited about what he drops next. - Dan Peeke
