Perk up your ears, pop people! Vibeke Saugestad is a fantastic Norwegian singer who fronted the band Weld back in the '90s, released several solo albums in the 2000s, and was also in The Yum Yums and The Twistaroos. She's responsible for "He's Peculiar," one of the greatest power pop songs ever recorded. She's now based in New York and working with a terrific band. The Vibeke Saugestad Band features Ken Fox on bass, Mark Westin on guitar, Josh Stark on guitar, and Adam Napell on drums. A new EP called The Sun Sessions will be releasing this fall on Rum Bar Records and Red Chuck Records. "Hey Now Sunshine," the first single from the EP, is out now and very much living up to its name. This track is indeed a ray of sonic sunshine and the very definition of perfect pop. Who's ready for a master class on how to write an earworm chorus? I've been wearing out the repeat button on this one, and I imagine many of you will be doing the same. All hail the queen!
