The Lumineers Shares New Song “It Wasn't Easy To Be Happy For You”
American folk rock band The Lumineers has premiered a new song “It Wasn't Easy To Be Happy For You” from their upcoming third studio album “III”.
The album consists of three chapters, each focusing on a different main character of the fictional Sparks family. The band previously released the three songs from the Gloria Sparks chapter, which were "Gloria", "Donna" and "Life in the City". Lead single "Gloria" is currently sitting at No. 1 on Billboard's Alternative Songs chart.
This time, the new track is focused on the character of Junior Sparks. The accompanying music video was directed by Kevin Phillips.
The band said, "We try to speak kindly after a breakup, but sometimes the truth is a different story. This is the introduction to Jr. Sparks, through his eyes and first-love heartbreak. Watch "It Wasn't Easy To Be Happy For You" the first video of 'Chapter II: Junior Sparks'"- source : ABC
