A year and a half after her break-through single No Roots, and exactly one year after I saw her promising performance at showcase festival ESNS, Alice Merton delivers her debut album Mint. Next to No Roots, her singles Lash Out, Why So Serious and Funny Business are present, so it’s definitely worth your time.

The first song you’ll hear when you listen to the album is Learn To Live. A great track, with the same kind of thumping bass line as the one that made the German singer a star in the rest of Europe. This is Alice Merton in mint condition, ready for the rest of the world!
