My sound has naturally matured a bit as I\u2019ve grown up but I wanted to keep the same pop sensibility as I had on the first record. I remember that I was on my way to a radio show in Las Vegas thinking about the direction for this new record and I realized that what I wanted to make was something that felt nostalgic but had something fresh and futuristic about it too.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/B5kAdK8hIAV\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" readability=\"-4.0140845070423\"><\/blockquote>\n<p>The European trek, dubbed the \u201cFuture Nostalgia 2020 European Arena Tour,\u201d will kick off in Madrid on April 26th.
