Thier debut self-titled EP garnered viral success on Spotify with over 15 million streams since its October 2016 release. Little Monarch will be dropping an EP later this year and “Tangerine” which we premiere today is just a lovely taste of that. They say of the track,
“We are so excited to release new music and start tour! “Tangerine” is the first single off our upcoming EP. The song started with the guitar riff, and we found ourselves building on this feeling of escaping to a magical island off an emerald bay à la Wes Andersons “Moonrise Kingdom”. Leaving your old ways behind in search of the next great adventure.”
