Despite the “Swedish music miracle,” only a handful of Swedish artists can embark on a U.S. tour without much trouble. One of them is Weatherday, the alias of songwriting prodigy Sputnik, who hails from somewhere in southern Sweden. Their debut album, Come In, was recorded with minimal means and quickly became an internet sensation, attracting listeners from around the world. The follow-up, Hornet Disaster, was released last year. It’s a bustling record with disparate songs each vying for space like wasps in a swarm. It can inspire caution and chaos, but there’s wonder, purpose, and a certain familiarity there, too. Where Come in was the product of an artist searching for their voice, Hornet Disaster represents the joyful abandon that comes from having found it. If you’re into emo, scrappy lo-fi noise, and emotions worn on the sleeve, you’ll love Weatherday – check them out at Stay Out West this year.
