If you’re already totally over the Christmas tunes right now you’ll be pleased to hear that today’s track of the day is a warm shot of summer vibes from folk-rock sextet The Frisbys: ‘Hurt Me’, which, despite the title, is an uplifting country-infused debut (FFO First Aid Kit).

“its about starting a new relationship after a significant heartbreak and the battle of deciding whether you are ready to pursue something new when you are still recovering from past hurts. It’s also about the responsibility of protecting other people and recognising that if you’re not ready to move on, you might end up causing someone else pain. Basically… it’s a no win. It sucks to break up with someone and it sucks to be broken up with. The song is pretty upbeat though so it isn’t quite as depressing as it sounds!”
