Louien is back with her third album, which sees her taking a big leap into a more indie pop sounding universe. She started out writing melancholic folk songs on her debut album, but has slowly found her own voice and a real knack for melodies. We heard hints of this on her last album, ?No Tomorrow/Figure Me Out?, and on this album - ?Every Dream I Ever Had? - she really embraces her new sound. On songs like ?Please? and ?Hours?, you can clearly hear influences from artists like Boygenious, Gracie Abrams and Lizzy McAlpine, while on ?Losing My Mind? she turns it up one more notch, with responding vocals from her band, and a tight drum groove. ?Quite Like This? is a another highlight from the album, which highlights her skill for writing unbelievably big and beautiful pop ballads. You could say that this is a slightly new turn for Louien, but still with strong songwriting and amazing melodies as the core of all her songs.
