ABOUT BLONDSHELL:
In the past few years, the 25-year-old Sabrina Teitelbaum has transformed into a songwriter without fear. The loud-quiet excavations that comprise the hook-filled Blondshell don’t only stare traumas in the eye, they tear them at the root and shake them, bringing precise detail to colossal feelings. They’re clear-eyed statements of and about digging your way towards confidence, self-possession, and relief.
Teitelbaum starting teasing Blondshell in 2022, capturing the attention of music critics and fans along the way with singles “Olympus,” “Kiss City,” “Veronica Mars,” and “Sepsis,” which Rolling Stone listed as their #1 Pick of the Month for their “Recommends” column. Last fall Blondshell also released “Cartoon Earthquake” as part of her partnership with Spotify for their Fresh Finds emerging artists program. Earlier this year Blondshell released her debut album, hailed by the Los Angeles Times as the “rock debut of 2023,” and has gone on to win the SXSW Grulke Developing Artist Prize, as well as make her late-night TV debut on The Tonight Show w/ Jimmy Fallon amidst a cavalcade of sold-out headline shows and global media acclaim.
Born and raised in New York City, Teitelbaum moved to Los Angeles for music school in 2015. She dropped out after two years, but while there studied classic and jazz theory, and the art of harmonies, and found herself writing songs inside the world of pop studio sessions.
The biggest gift the pop machine gave her was the stark clarity of realizing that she didn’t quite belong there. Her music was increasingly too raw and intense to easily categorize, and after finishing her last full-on pop EP with producer Yves Rothman (Yves Tumor, Girlpool, Porches) at the start of the pandemic, she gave herself permission to write without expectation. She began penning songs just for herself, with no thought that she would release them. The process emboldened her. Subtracting self-consciousness became a catalyst for the lucid songs of Blondshell, on which her experiences all coalesce to form her truest expressions of self yet. “It was me, as a person, in my songs,” she says. When she showed a few to Rothman, he encouraged her to write an album, joining a chorus of friends saying, “This is you.” That bracing honesty charges every note of Blondshell.
