“This record has so much growth in it,” shares Langley. “I’ve never poured more of myself into a project, into a song, into an idea, and it’s fallen out so beautifully. It’s about learning yourself, making mistakes, and realizing that it’s all just part of life.

“I want this record to be something that fans can relate to, but also something they want to get up and dance to at the same time,” she continues. “To me, this record feels like fireflies in the summertime. It feels like windows down on a red dirt road. It feels like the best kind of Sunday afternoon. It feels like those days I remember as a kid where it felt like there weren’t enough hours in the day. This record is really a love letter to that.”

On the record, dandelions represent survival through the hardest environments, signifying hope, healing, and resilience. “I learned that dandelion tea is actually a natural detox for the liver,” she says. “So a record called Dandelion after a record called hungover made all the sense in the world to me.”

Physical copies of Dandelion will be available in a Limited Edition Signed Honey Bee Yellow Colored Vinyl, Standard Puffball White Colored Vinyl, and Standard Jewelcase CD.
