Jill Blutt – Swansea

We’ve got a lot of time for US-based artist Jill Blutt. This rising talent always impresses us with her powerful and moving songs, and her newest single is no different.

‘Swansea’ is taken from Blutt’s latest EP, ‘An Almond-Shaped Moon and Four Things I Wish I Never Knew About Myself’ (listen here), and treats listeners to a beautifully constructed fusion of breakbeat and electronic pop.

The song fits into the EP’s wider story of ‘queer love found and lost again’ and is inspired by one of Blutt’s biggest worries:

“A deep-seeded fear that without love life loses meaning, and I my identity.”

Blutt has amassed thousands of catalogue streams to date and continues to win over tastemakers as noted as DNü and HighClouds.

Jill Blutt – When I Grace Yr Mantelpiece

Acclaimed American artist, songwriter, and producer, Jill Blutt, has unveiled a new single this week, and it’s one of our favourites to date.

When I Grace Yr Mantelpiece‘ is sonically inspired by the synthwave movement of the 80s and carries a dark undertone which is captivating to listen to. It’s an expertly constructed piece of pop and is sure to be one of Blutt’s biggest releases yet.

“My new single, paronymously named ‘When I Grace Yr Mantelpiece’, is an existential plea whose message is unapologetically unsubtle: please, please make me famous or I’ll die.”

Blutt’s work has found support through outlets like Spotify’s hugely popular Fresh Finds and Fresh Finds Indie. A new EP is on the way, but until then you can stream more of Blutt’s music right here.

New Music: Jill Blutt

American talent Jill Blutt’s airy vocals glide over a perfectly balanced mix of synth-pop and indie on ‘Breathing in Manual’.

The result is a song that flirts between nostalgia and a more future-forward sound which is tremendously exciting to listen to.

“I make music for crying at the club/ on your way to the club/ in your bathroom when you were getting ready to go to the club but couldn’t quite make it out the house.”
