Cosmic Coming of Age is about that transitional period in life where everything seems to fall apart, a kind of quarter life crisis,” she explains. “One moment you have everything together, the next it feels like you have to start life from scratch.

Fickle Friends speak of this period of turbulence and uncertainty with reflective positivity.

The band merge this unique and interesting lyrical topic with the typical upbeat indie sound of their previous releases.
