Laye’s trademark playful, sultry vocals prance atop live instrumentation to birth an airy melody, co-existing surprisingly well with the somber undertones of her lyrics. Her voice infuses the track with a buoyant quality, rendering a world that teeters between being apocalyptic and cheerful—a profound juxtaposition.

This indie pop prodigy teamed up with Cici Ward and Oscar Neidhardt to co-write this compelling track, and their collective touch is distinctively palpable. The compelling synergy evident in unhappier is evidence of their shared vision and creative compatibility.

Unhappier is an introspective exploration of human emotions, love, and heartbreak, an attempt to comfort listeners in their seemingly mundane struggles with jealousy and unhappiness. There’s a sense of shared humanity here, an invitation to understand that these emotions, while uncomfortable, are shared universally.

Laye’s music consistently offers a safe space for listeners to navigate their emotional realities while being wrapped in an irresistible indie-pop package.

So, whether you’re an ardent indie pop fan or a first-time explorer of the genre, make sure to add unhappier to your playlist. It’s a brilliant paradox of melody and emotion, capturing the essence of being human. Get ready to dance through the apocalypse with laye and maybe find a slice of solace along the way.
