The album is a mixture of styles ranging from doo wop to rockabilly, girl-group to soulful rock. Nicole describes it as an album about "not being in love",[1] and says that "It’s like a fairy tale. There’s something quite enchanted about it.".[2] She wrote all 11 songs on the album, and performed the vocals, guitar, keyboards, and drums for the record. The first single from the album will be Standing Tears Apart, released on 24 August.
