Mari Sandvær Kreken and Tor Egil Kreken, better known as Norwegian folk duo Darling West, have just announced a brand new full-length album, We'll Never Know Unless We Try, to be released on February 7, 2020 via Jansen Records. Leaning into sunny California dreamscapes, We'll Never Know Unless We Try is a little west of center for the band's sound—a sound that Lucinda Williams dubbed “Cosmic Folk” after her first time sharing a stage with Mari and Tor Egil—but never loses the charm and feel Darling West fans have quickly grown to love since the band's first record was released in 2014. Today, American Songwriter premiered “Hey There,” the new single from We'll Never Know Unless We Try, commenting, “The sound puts a distinctly Nordic twist on American, and Americana, songwriting tradition...beautifully melodic vocals.” Darling West explains the origins of the track, “It's not always easy to be inspired to write songs when everything feels good and you're content. Usually, it all just comes out cheesy and it feels awkward. 'Hey There' came together in that kind of moment. We decided to put all fear of cliches aside and just celebrate the beauty of the connection between two people and true love as we know it.”
