Happy Neon is an EP by British singer–songwriter Neon Hitch. It was released on 14 January 2013 through Warner Music Group, and later through Hitch's independent label, eleuthromusic, after her split from Warner.[1]

Background

In an interview with Billboards Jason Lipshutz, Hitch stated on the making of the EP, "We locked ourselves in the studio for a week and just made music constantly. It turned out to be this whole EP, and there's no way we couldn't call it Happy Neon".[2]

Critical reception

Jason Lipshutz of Billboard claimed: "[Happy Neon] combines sleek, arena–ready pop production with intimate lyrics that capture the 26–year–old at a pivotal moment in her young career. 'Pink Fields', for instance, concludes a wrenching vocal performance with an infectious refrain, while 'Jailhouse' finds Hitch pleading to 'Please set me free!' as stuttering percussion creates the walls of her conceptual prison."

Songs

A music video for "Pink Fields" was released on 6 March 2013, and a music video for "Midnight Sun" was released on 30 April 2013.[3] [4]
