Lauran Hibberd unveils new track 'That Was A Joke'

With her eagerly-awaited debut album now less than a month away, Lauran Hibberd has now unveiled the next cut to be lifted from her forthcoming full-length.

The new single 'That Was A Joke' follows on from the previously shared tracks ‘I’m Insecure’ and ‘Step Mum’ in previewing her first LP 'Garageband Superstar', which is out on the 19th August via Virgin Music.

Speaking about the new offering, she said, “‘That Was A Joke’ lives in a world of denial, and sometimes it’s better like that. I feel like it could be a soundtrack to an early noughties kids show but the references are too niche for the average Zoey 101 watcher. It felt like a good track to leak, because I can always lean on the title to save my butt if no one likes it”.
