I cannot get “New Hampshire” by Wild Light out of my head. Now, this isn’t one of those pestering annoyances that has you doing everything in your power to replace it with something else. No, this is a good thing; the song is catchy and filled with emotive pop that’s easy to get into and dig wholeheartedly.

The group comes to us via StarTime International, a label that boasts a small, but impressive catalog of artists, as well as an affiliation with a major. Along with Wild Light, they’ve got Peter Bjorn & John; Walter Meego; Shugo Tokumaru; and Does It Offend You, Yeah?

So their new album, Adult Nights, doesn’t hit stores until March 3, but the crew is currently on tour in support of said future album with Tapes ‘N Tapes. They’ll be hitting Boise today, Seattle tomorrow, and Portland on Wednesday. Here’s the next month of tour stops:
