When Are You Leaving? is a record for anyone still figuring themselves out. The album follows NoSo’s 2022 debut “Stay Proud Of Me.” NoSo (real name: Baek Hwong, he/they) says: “My first album mostly comprised of daydreaming about what my life could be like if I embraced my identity. This record is firmly rooted in reality and details my enlightening and tumultuous experiences head on.”

Largely self-produced, When Are You Leaving? sharpens NoSo’s artistry into something at once more expansive and more intimate. It’s an album about the subtle, slow-burning victories that come after walking away from what no longer serves you. “Sugar”, (co-produced by Wild Nothing’s Jack Tatum). Hwong elaborates: “‘Sugar’ is about the delicate dance of interacting with volatile, unwell individuals. It’s a reflection on those experiences, aiming to approach them with sympathy instead of anger. I’ve learned that this is the only way I can move forward—by not feeding those memories and giving them power.”
