But on I Want to Grow Up, her second\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ealbum for Hardly Art, Colleen Green lets us know that we don't have to go it alone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis latest collection of songs follows a newly 30-year-old Green as she carefully navigates a minefield\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eof emotion. Her firm belief in true love is challenged by the inner turmoil caused by entering modern adulthood, but that doesn't mean that her faith is defeated. With a nod to her heroes, sentimental SoCal punks The Descendents, Green too wonders what it will be like when she gets old. Throughout songs\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003esuch as \"Some People,\" \"Deeper Than Love,\" and the illustrative title track, the listener has no choice but\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eto feel the sympathetic growing pains of revelatory maturation and the anxieties that come along with it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSonically the album is a major change for the LA-based songwriter, who has come to be known for her homemade recordings and merchandise. Her past offerings have been purely Green; testaments to her self-sufficiency and, perhaps, trepidation. This time, she's got a little help from her friends: the full band heard here includes JEFF the Brotherhood's Jake Orrall and Diarrhea Planet's Casey Weissbuch, who\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecollaborated with Green over ten days at Sputnik Sound in Nashville, TN.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eI Want to Grow Up is an experience, not unlike life: questioning, learning, taking risks. And in true CG\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003efashion, a quote from a beloved 90s film seems the perfect summation: \"Understanding is reached only\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eafter confrontation.\"\u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"South Records Ltd","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":64322592964985,"sku":null,"price":8.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"LP","offer_id":64322592997753,"sku":null,"price":10.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0973\/1463\/6153\/files\/colleen-green-i-want-to-grow-up-south-records-ltd_94e00280-a4c3-4636-a710-ff6a17724cc4.jpg?v=1787902395","url":"https:\/\/vinyl-relic.com\/products\/colleen-green-i-want-to-grow-up","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
