Rising indie-rock artist meg elsier announces her forthcoming debut album, spittake, releasing on June 28th. Alongside the announcement, meg also reveals her upcoming North American Fall tour dates supporting Finom. Tickets are on sale now.
Hailing from New England and now based in Nashville, meg elsier has emerged as one of the most exciting new voices in the indie-rock space. Juxtaposing her sweet vocals and opulent melodies with grungy guitars and weighty production, meg is carving out a sonic lane all of her own. Her wit and self-awareness shines through in her lyrics, seamlessly weaving into the fabric of her ethereal shoegaze sound.
Her highly-anticipated 11-track album, spittake, includes previously released singles, “ifshitfuq,” “baby,” “iznotreal,” “forlyleinsanfrancisco,” and “oldnews.” Demonstrating her versatility as an artist, meg recently shared a remix of her latest single, “oldnewsremix” ft. Coleman.X (Carson Cody x Joy in Missing Out remix), molding her indie-rock single into a hyper-pop anthem.
Speaking about her forthcoming debut album, spittake, meg elsier shares: “The creation of spittake was the biggest and scariest thing that I’ve done. It’s something I built up and something that seemed somewhat impossible to even imagine how to achieve. But it happened! Ryan McFadden and I made this record by getting to know each other’s intentions and taste, and just brain processes. To be honest, I don’t think I knew what the record meant to me/what I wanted to create until it was done. I know I wanted to record an album because I felt proud of these songs and I really was craving for people to hear them. What I really was searching for was an introduction as… meg. Not someone I’m mirroring, or someone I’ve been trying to become. Just who I am genuinely at this moment.”
