It seems indicative of U.S. divorce trends that we could reasonably add National Ex-Spouse Day to the calendar between the bookends of April Fool’s Day and 4/20.

In the interest of feeding our delusion of music being a cure-all, we’ve opted for a decidedly more “teenage angst” approach in celebrating the sanctioned… Read more »

Notably, the single boasts an all-female team behind its creation, from writing to production and engineering. This underlines PVRIS leader Lynn Gunn‘s commitment to inclusivity across… Read more »
