Lauv: All 4 Nothing (LP)

Lauv, whose business card should read singer/songwriter/producer/multi-instrumentalist (and also "platinum-selling") at the top, sees himself first and foremost as a storyteller. For it is stories set to music that have won him a huge fan base all over the world - magical anecdotes from his immediate environment, which he regularly knows how to transform into catchy anthems for his generation After his first album, "I Like Me Better," already gave him a bona fide worldwide hit, the next chapter now begins - one that sounds even more exciting, even more stunning, also because his storytelling is even more sophisticated: All 4 Nothing. On "All 4 Nothing," Lauv continues to develop his trademark sound by revealing even more of himself, opening up even more: He has focused on storytelling, says the Californian about the latest immersive song worlds from his pen. Content-wise, it's about nostalgia, personal conflicts, and ultimately self-empowerment.
