Today, Chicago-bred production duo Louis The Child release their debut album Here For Now, which is comprised of 14 anthemic tracks with features from the likes of EARTHGANG, K.FLAY, FOSTER THE PEOPLE, Bob Moses and more. The album includes the recently released track “Nobody Like You” with Vera Blue, the pair’s latest single “Little Things” with Quinn XCII & Chelsea Cutler which has garnered over 20 million combined streams, and previously released track “Free” with Drew Love which has amassed over 25 million combined streams, along with “Every Color” with Foster The People and “Don’t Mind.” Here For Now is available at all digital retail providers via Interscope Records. See the full tracklisting below.

Louis The Child says about the album, “There are a few messages throughout the album. Primarily, it’s about realizing and accepting how short this life is, trying to appreciate the moments we get, and finding the magic in every second because we’re only here for now. We wrote songs about the way we view the world. The way we treat each other matters. We can be a positive light. Let’s not stress the small things. Let’s make our experience the best we can for ourselves and everyone around us.”

In addition, Louis The Child made explosive appearances at Coachella, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Electric Forest, and beyond. Not to mention, they garnered acclaim from Billboard, Rolling Stone, People Magazine, Hypebeast, Dancing Astronaut, and more. In 2020, they unveil their full-length debut the aptly named Here For Now [Interscope] and continue to prove they are a musical force to be reckoned with.
