"Let Alvvays romance you all year long."

Just try to resist the super-sweet charms of the debut LP from Toronto-based indie-pop group Alvvays.

It’ll spark your interest with the bright, carefree melodies of Adult Diversion and lure you closer with offerings of intimacy in Archie, Marry Me and Next Of Kin, before finally capturing your heart for good with the beautiful vulnerability of Party Police and Dives. There’s a perfect balance of longing and fulfilment throughout the journey, flawlessly sung by Molly Rankin with the aid of vibrant guitars and sultry synths. Let Alvvays romance you all year long.
