German five-piece Some Sprouts, who steer a middle course between melancholy slacker rock and catchy indie pop, are on a roll. After releasing their second EP Immt last October, they just put out their brand-new single Someone You Love.

However melancholic the themes in many of the band’s songs, singer Joshua sounds so charming, that one can’t help but feeling good. Someone You Love is another example of Some Sprouts‘ nimble, summery tunes.
