Uncover is an extended play (EP) by Swedish pop recording artist Zara Larsson. The EP was released in January 2015 and was her first to be released outside Europe. [1][2] The EP includes 6 tracks taken from her debut studio album 1 released in Europe three months earlier.

Background

Larsson came to fame by winning Talang 2008 (Sweden’s Got Talent) when she was just 10 years old. Since then, she has released a number 1 album in Sweden and number of platinum selling singles, including the 7times platinum selling single, “Uncover[3] In April 2013, Larsson announced she had signed a deal with Epic Records [4][5] who will release her music in America and Australia. [6]

Critical reception

Bradley Stern of Muu Muse said; “This is the very essence of Swede-pop at its finest: Strong song craft, powerful melodies and captivatingly pure vocals, from the feel-good, ’80’s synth-soaked “Wanna Be Your Baby” to the thoroughly brilliant “Rooftop” to “She’s Not Me, Pt. 1 & 2,” which glides across ghostly wisps like one long, paranoid internal monologue and/or ode to Madonna‘s Hard Candy jam.”[7]
