English singer-songwriter Holly Humberstone has released her second studio album, ‘Cruel World’. 

It’s a shift for the artist, delving into a more upbeat pop sound, whilst dealing with themes of belonging, steadiness, repair, and discipline. 

The atmospheric style and intimacy of Humberstone’s musical style has seen her compared to artists like Lorde and Bon Iver, and she herself has described her style as “quite self-exposing". 

Chris Schulz joined Jack Tame to give his thoughts on the new album.
