Lauren Sanderson
“Midwest Kids Can Make It Big”
Since we’ve discovered Lauren Sanderson’s music, we’re always thrilled to hear every new songs she unveils because she clearly never disappoint. Indeed, she returns with an obsessing single ‘But I Like’, which is part of her latest album entitled Midwest Kids Can Make It Big. The album actually features 8 amazing songs that will uplift your mind. The remarkable thing about the album is its versatility. You'll shift from soothed and emotional ballads like ‘Begin’ and ‘To The People I Hurt’, to Upbeat vibes like ‘But I like’.
In fact, since the post is mainly about the latter track, we should probably redirect the spotlight on it. The song is actually made of a fluid fusion between Commercial pop, Indie Rock and some hints of Funk music. Lauren’s vocal tone is authentic and instantly captivates, from the first notes to the last. Moreover, her talent as songwriter is palpable and actually showcases the greatness awaiting her.
