Blondshell (Sabrina Teitelbaum) released her self-titled debut album on April 7 via Partisan Records to world-wide critical acclaim. The praise has continued into the summer with the LP landing on numerous “best of the year so far” lists over the last month including from NPR, NYLON, Consequence, i-D, Uproxx, and Paste.
Now, she shares the demo version of one of the first singles that put her on the map, the fan favorite “Kiss City.” Blondshell shares, “I wanted to show people what the song sounded like the night I wrote it when it was the most urgent and simple. I just made the demo on my phone, but I think you can hear a lot of the desperation in it. Putting out this version is like taking away the shield of big rock production and boiling it down to what I was saying and feeling when I was alone.”
Blondshell is closing out her first-ever headline tour of North America and on September 6 she will return to Los Angeles for a conversation and performance at the Grammy Museum. Tickets go on sale Friday, August 5 at 12pm PT. Additionally Blondshell has two upcoming festival appearances – the Bleached Festival in San Diego on August 5 and a set at Iceland Airwaves in Reykjavik on November 2-4. This fall she will be back on the road as the direct support for Liz Phair with dates starting November 7. All dates can be found below.
Last month saw Blondshell perform “Joiner” and “Dangerous” from her album as well as the standalone single “Cartoon Earthquake” on CBS Saturday Morning.
