Irish duo 49th & Main continue their streak of successes with the announcement of their debut album. Happy Tears is set for release via digital and vinyl on June 13th via Counter Records (Ninja Tune).
 
That constant duality - looking back while pushing forward - is at the heart of Happy Tears: the feeling of embracing the moment even as it slips away. Across 21 tracks, the album moves between euphoric highs and introspective lows, reflecting every facet of their sound.

Capturing the rush of youth and the bittersweet awareness that nothing lasts forever, Happy Tears serves as a coming-of-age soundtrack - balancing reckless abandon with the quiet realisation that these are the moments we’ll one day long for.
