About the album

Zara Larsson has been making pop hits since she was a teenager in Stockholm, and Midnight Sun, her fifth album, finds her more confident and more playful than ever. She made it with a small circle of collaborators, including MNEK, and drew on the endless light of a Swedish summer for inspiration. The result is bright, glossy electropop with dance-pop hooks and flashes of drum and bass, wrapped around songs about ambition, identity and figuring out who you are. MNEK's knack for big, bright choruses is all over it, and Larsson sounds like she is having the time of her life.

The title track sets the scene, "Blue Moon" and "Pretty Ugly" are sharp and catchy, and "Girl's Girl" and "Crush" are pure summer-night singalongs. "The Ambition" and "Saturn's Return" show the more reflective side of the record. The Girls Trip disc gives every song a second life, so the party keeps going well past side two. It is the kind of record that makes November feel like June, which, in Toronto, is a public service.
