New Music from the Inbox: Valley, Makaya McCraven, Soaked Oats, and more!
Artist: Valley
Song: The Problem Song
The Problem Song is alt-pop gold from a band that consistently delivers alt-pop gold. Sharp songwriting, sincerity, and killer production will easily keep this new single on repeat. Lead singer Rob Laska shares: “We didn’t hold back on really saying it as it is. ‘The Problem Song’ simply put is about switching on hope within the grounds of your relationship with someone you’ve loved for a long time. It’s about the unexpected shit that is the reality of being with “the one” for a long time. It’s about finding joy in the pursuit of starting again.”
