 “The visual is the perfect mood-setter for the killer new track, on which 
the promising singer-songwriter flips off expectations and rides a disobedient hook 
into a glowing guitar lick.” – Billboard
“‘Frustrated’ puts a moody hue on the alt-pop sound she does so well. 
It’s the perfect soundtrack for a night drive alone with your 
feelings riding shotgun.” – Ones to Watch
“The vocals are punk, the guitar is indie, and the mood is head nodding. 
It all comes together in a belligerent groove you can glide to. 
Hands up. We’re feeling this.” – idobi Radio
“Rocking guitar riffs backed by Sanderson’s raw voice and meaningful lyrics all meld together to create a relatable track speaking on life’s anxieties.” – Alternative Press
“Reminiscent of Miley Cyrus and SZA, she manages to find an auditory balance between gloomy and hopeful. With shimmering synths, a pulsating beat and her compelling vocal energy, this slick ear-pleaser is a powerhouse 
of contemporary pop/rock.” – Jansen’s Jamz
LOS ANGELES, CA – AUGUST 17, 2020– 24-year old, Indiana native Lauren Sanderson is set out to impact the world in the raw, fearless way we’ve been waiting for. Truly embodying what it means to be a DIY artist, Lauren took control of 2020 and wrote six brand new songs that will be released this Friday, August 21st on the Deluxe Edition of her debut full-length album Midwest Kids Can Make It BigCombining influences from pop to R&B to rock to hip-hop and everything in between, Lauren’s music is just like her personality – unable to be contained in one box or defined by a label. Lauren may be bold and rebellious, but her down to earth spirit and outspoken belief in others is bringing a community together.
“6 new songs and all I wanna say is be your f*ckin self,” Sanderson shares with fans ahead of Friday’s release.“Feel it all and trust your process. You can do everything you wanna do in this life. Just be real with yourself.”
Fans got a taste of new music with last week’s release of “Frustrated”, a moody groove that has been praised by fans and press alike. Featuring the slick R&B vibes that have propelled Lauren to the top of playlists around the world, the new single also welcomes synth-pop and rock vibes reminiscent of artists like Miley Cyrus, LANY, Post Malone, The Neighbourhood, SZA, all of which have influenced Sanderson.
