Look out for Sarah Johnsone’sDon’t Wanna Be Your Girl” on Spotify’s New Music Friday UK. You’ll love if you like 90′ indie pop.

Inspired by Jack Johnson and Corinne Bailey Rae’s self titled album, Sarah says, “I’ve found that my lyrics always tend towards the sombre side, so for this single I wanted to juxtapose it with energetic riffs and guitar solos. It’s the first recording I made with my band, which gave me way more scope and depth musically. The song is about falling for someone who you know is no good, but it isn’t a downcast tune at all.”

She’s landed on Spotify editorial playlists including New Music Friday and Study Break and Easy.
