Fickle Friends Releases New Song “Happier”
British alt-pop band Fickle Friends, consisting of Natassja Shiner (vocals), Jack Wilson (guitar), Jack Harry Herrington (bass) and Sam Morris (drums), released a new song “Happier” along with a music video on April 10, 2025.
The song is the fourth single since their 2022 sophomore album “Are We Gonna Be Alright?”, following “Feral”, “Dream”, and “Swoon”.
It was written by Hilde Skaar, Jack Herrington, Jack Wilson, Natassja Shiner, and Sam Morris. Produced by Jack Wilson.
The band said of the song, “Back in 2021, SKAAR came down to our little studio in Shoreham and we wrote a few ideas-one of them was a song we jokingly called Wonderwall (will explain another time). The chorus stuck with me, even after the demo sank to the bottom of a hard drive. Fast forward to this year-Jack and I dug it out and suddenly it all made sense. The lyrics hit different after everything that’s happened lately. I won’t go too deep here, but it’s been a time of growing, letting go, and finding some inner peace-especially since Jack moved to that cottage with the bed on the mezzanine.”- They continued, “Finishing Happier was honestly cathartic. There’s something so tough about watching someone you love struggle, knowing they’ve got to be the one to pull themselves out-but then, watching them do that? That’s the real beauty. We hope Happier resonates. In a world that can feel heavy and disconnected, maybe it’s possible to choose a little happiness each day. To nurture it. To let it grow. Also big shouts to Jack Shepherd for his beautiful shredding that really brought this tune to life.”
