After documenting her life to date on debut album 'Garageband Superstar', more than anything 'Girlfriend Material' captures who Hibberd has become, changed from the artist we met on album one and likely different from the artist we'll meet in the future. 'Girlfriend Material' courses with that exploratory, sometimes confused, questioning feeling. Now more confident and comfortable in the language of songwriting, this album takes the foundations Hibberd started laying on 'Garageband Superstar' and builds them up several accomplished storeys. The tongue-in-cheek humour that won her praise from the likes of DIY, NME, Rolling Stone UK, Kerrang!, Radio 1 and more is still present, but it's joined by new layers of nuance and candidness - think songs that can make you laugh, cry and feel less alone, all within under four minutes. Sonically, too, she's entering new ground, bringing together forever influences like Avril Lavigne, Weezer and Green Day with the likes of Olivia Rodrigo, Liz Phair and Taylor Swift.
