Artist: Björn and the Sun
Hometown: Los Angeles, CA
Album Title: Young and Restless
Release Date: January 19

In Their Words: "Young and Restless is a collection of songs that we started writing a year ago, after leaving our home in Los Angeles to drive across country to live in Nashville. These stories are soaked in love, confusion, expectation, adventure, optimism, and freedom. They are a reflection of this particular brief slice of life that we lived, that our friends and family lived, and that we can always come back to through the words and notes of these songs. We hope you'll dance to these songs, make love, drive down the highway with the windows down, and sing along." — Amanda Björn

In Their Words: "'Young and Restless' is about movement. It's the transformation that takes place when you leave everything familiar behind, throw your belongings into a Beetle, and drive across the country with the person you love. It's about removing yourself from the schedule, the everyday habits, and the support network of your friends and family. It's about diving head first into a city, learning the names of new streets, tasting unfamiliar foods, striking up conversations with strangers, and ultimately breaking down protective layers of comfort to come face-to-face with a real sense of vulnerability. It's an uplifting reminder that, 'Today's the youngest you'll ever be,' so stay hungry and urgent in your search for personal fulfillment. However, it's also about finding the courage to start all over again … every day, if you need to." — Amanda Bjorn
