The powerfully vulnerable debut EP from rising pop-rock star Lauren Presley.
About The EP:
Texas-born, Nashville-based Lauren Presley is a rising alt-pop talent that you’re going to
want to keep on your radar. Her recently released debut EP, Hanging In The Balance, is a powerful and catchy collection of songs.
The project’s dark pop-rock energy is fuelled by Lauren’s heartfelt storytelling, raw and vulnerable in the most perfect way. Each of the 5 tracks details the highs and lows of young adulthood with universal relatability and unique authenticity.
Lauren shares stories of self-doubt, trust, and personal growth with passion and confidence, proof that this is just the beginning for the talented singer-songwriter who’s already gained attention from outlets like Wonderland and Spotify’s Fresh Finds: Pop playlist.

Can I Be Happy
Favourite Lyric:
“Is there somewhere that could make me happy
Halfway across the world
Far enough away where no one knows me
Don’t have to be that girl
Who’s terrified she’ll never be enough
Only loves herself for things she’s done“
— From "Can I Be Happy"
