total tommy Announces New Album ‘Trapezoid’

Clash · 4 hours ago

Total tommy, the Sydney-based Australian songwriter, has announced her upcoming album 'Trapezoid', scheduled for release on October 23rd. Following the commercial success of her 2024 debut 'Bruises', which merged grunge aesthetics with pop accessibility and Gen Z perspective, the new 11-track record will be distributed through Play It Again Sam. The title track is currently available for listening, showcasing the guitar-driven songwriting that has become characteristic of her work.

The album's title holds personal significance for the artist, who drew inspiration from both the anatomical trapezoid bone—the smallest bone in the hand, essential for grip and dexterity—and the geometric shape's inherent asymmetry. Total tommy has explained that 'Trapezoid' serves as a thematic anchor for the record, exploring her journey toward self-acceptance and the deliberate abandonment of perfectionism. Rather than forcing changes to her identity, she describes the album as an embrace of the traits and imperfections that define her artistic voice.

  • Australian artist total tommy (Jess Holt) will release her second album 'Trapezoid' on October 23rd via Play It Again Sam
  • The 11-track record follows her 2024 debut 'Bruises' and blends 90s grunge sensibilities with contemporary pop influences
  • The title track, now available, reflects themes of self-acceptance and embracing imperfection rather than pursuing symmetry
