The 2018 debut album from singer/songwriter Ari Leff, aka Lauv, showcases the New York-based artist's emotive pop. Weaving in electronic beats and synths along with organic bits of percussion, guitar, and piano, Lauv crafts a warm sound. He also displays his skill at songcraft, drawing you in with his hooky, heartfelt anthems about love and heartbreak. I Met You When I Was 18 includes the international hit "I Like Me Better" as well as "The Other," "Reforget," and "Bracelet." ~ Matt Collar
