Sometimes, Forever will act as a follow-up to 2020’s critical success that was color theory. The critical success of that album confirmed Soccer Mommy to be slightly more than the bedroom indie staple that her other albums like Clean may have led us to believe. In a conversation with NME, Soccer Mommy – this time less popularly known by her offstage name Sophie Allison – commented that ‘Bones’ was initially drafted to be a part of a rom-com. But since the song’s creation, Allison decided to keep it for herself. When questioned about the song’s meaning she explained it was basically, “about struggling with the parts of yourself that you don’t like in a relationship.” Before lightening the mood a little with, “It’s about wanting to become better for someone and feeling like you’re standing in your own way.”

Allison will also be taking the new tunes to a few UK in-store gigs shortly after the release of the album. Fans in Leeds, Liverpool, Brighton, and Bristol could get some of the earliest tastes of the new sounds this June before the tour kicks off in the states in October. It was also announced that the pre-sale for the rest of the tour (which unfortunately already kicked off this morning (May 19^th)) would donate a portion of its proceeds to Planned Parenthood. While the presale has already come and gone, the remainder of the tickets go on sale tomorrow morning (May 20^th) at 10am. You can try and bag yourself a few here. With additional support on the US leg from a pair of Canadian artists – Singer-songwriter Helena Deland, and indie rock outfit TOPS – the UK’s support slots are yet to be filled.
