Everything Was Green EP follows on from Forest’s Claudette’s debut EP, The Year of February which saw them being nominated for Rolling Stone Awards Breakthrough Artist 2023 and selected as Live Nation’s Ones To Watch in 2022.
 
Forest says of the EP:
“Everything Was Green follows what I feel have been some of the more impactful moments in my life over the past two years.
One way of looking at it is that I grew up in green, in the forest. Green represents everything I’ve known, everything that is safe and familiar.
 
The EP maps a cycle of thoughts and life that I’ve been experiencing since 2019. Heartbreak, freedom, excess, gratitude, awareness and finally tracing most issues back to systemic injustice.
I feel like these themes whirl around my head on a loop near constantly. I go through phases of seeing them everywhere or seeking them out.”
