Event information

The expression of hard-fought optimism encapsulates "The Good Kind", an album exploring themes of sexuality, relationships, community, and illness. Our Girl's trademark dynamics permeate the record, from heavy guitars and soaring lead lines to ear worm choruses and intimate vocal moments. Filled with warmth and honesty, The Good Kind is a celebration of determination - of choosing to recommit to what matters, against all opposition. "A lot of the songs are about taking setbacks and turning them into superpowers" says drummer Lauren Wilson.

"I only realised then, when I thought it out loud," begins singer/guitarist Soph Nathan on "Relief", the first single released from the album, "And I feel better now". This song is aptly named, invoking a long-awaited exhale - the feeling of finally emerging from a long and lonely period of uncertainty and self-doubt. Beginning with a single airy strum, Nathan's reverb-drenched guitar attaches itself to Joshua Tyler's grounding bass chords, as Wilson's quietly insistent drum beat throws its weight behind Nathan's words of reassurance: "You've gotta see it to believe it. Well, I see it in you already."

This song speaks honestly to the life-giving importance of queer community. From the warmth and immediacy of her delivery, Nathan could be comforting a friend. But as "Relief" builds from that cautious opening to a determinedly, driving force, it becomes clear: these aren't empty platitudes. Nathan believes in you, because she's learned to believe in herself.
