The Sun Will Come Up, the Seasons Will Change is the second studio album by Scottish singer-songwriter Nina Nesbitt, released on 1 February 2019 through Cooking Vinyl. The standard edition of the album was supported by eight singles. "The Moments I'm Missing" was released as the lead single in July 2017^[5] quickly followed by "The Best You Had", "Somebody Special", "Loyal to Me", "Colder", "Is It Really Me You're Missing", "Love Letter" and "Last December".^[6] The deluxe extension featured two new singles, "Black & Blue" and "Toxic". Nesbitt embarked on a headline tour of North America and the United Kingdom from February to April 2019 in support of the album, which visited 26 venues.^[7]

Background

The album had been worked on by Nesbitt for three years and is more pop-focused than her previous material.^[7] Nesbitt stated that it is "the album I always wanted to make on my own terms. It's an honest account of somebody in their early '20s, giving a real window into their often ever changing life."^[8]

Music

"The Best You Had" has been called "R&B-tinged" and an "unusually honest breakup track", while "The Moments I'm Missing", produced in Nesbitt's bedroom, was called "multi-layered" with a story behind it.^[8]^[9] "Somebody Special" was noted as a "love song with a twist" and a "self-love anthem", and "Is It Really Me You're Missing?" was originally intended for Rihanna.^[8]^[9]
