Background and release[edit]

In May 2015, Petric was announced as the first artist signed by Canadian singer Dallas Smith's then-new record label Steelhead Music.[2] They released their debut single, "Here Goes Everything", on May 21, 2015, and it first impacted Canadian country radio on May 26, 2015.[1][3][4] It Girl was released October 16, 2015, along with the single release of its title track.[5] An acoustic version of the EP, titled It Girl (Stripped Down), was released December 9, 2016.[6]

Promotion[edit]

The duo joined the western leg of Smith's Tippin' Point Tour in January and February 2015, where they began debuting the songs from It Girl.[7] They held an album launch party at the Park Theatre in Winnipeg, Manitoba, on November 25, 2015.[7]

Critical reception[edit]

Amanda Hather of Canadian Beats rated the EP four-and-a-half stars out of five, writing, "the vocals and harmonies on this EP are very impressive and go to show how much talent the duo has."[8]
