ratbag announces debut EP 'why aren't you laughing?'

Having already established herself as one of the more exciting names on the rise this past year, ratbag has now announced her plans for her debut EP, arriving in just a few days.

The new four-track collection 'why aren't you laughing?' will include the previously shared outings 'dead end kids', 'exit girl', and 'rat in my walls', and is set to be released this Friday 8th December.

Speaking about the new release, she said, “why aren’t you laughing? is your invitation into my world. i’ve opened the door just a crack, enough for you to see the beginning of what’s going on. these 4 songs had been brewing in a big ol’ bowl of soup in my head and are now ready to be eaten, by you. it feels quite scary to hand over my songs, like i’m handing pieces of me to the world, but i think it’s equally as exciting. i hope you’re hungry.”

Listen again to the recent single 'dead end kids' in the player and see the EP's full tracklisting below.

'why aren't you laughing?' Tracklist:
1. dead end kids
2. exit girl
