(New York, NY) June 9, 2023: Today, pop rulebreaker UPSAHL continues with her THE PHX TAPES project with the release of VOLUME TWO debuting “WET WHITE TEE SHIRT” (A SIDE) and “SICK PRETTY MIND” (B SIDE). Listen to the new tracks HERE.

“WET WHITE TEE SHIRT” (A SIDE), co-written with Justin Tranter (Lady Gaga, Dua Lipa, Måneskin) and produced by Max Martin collaborators Rami Yacoub and Sly, is a steamy song soundtracked by a booming bass that begs to be blasted at full volume. The track would fit in just as seamlessly bumping through a packed club in 1993 as it does in 2023. It perfectly coincides with UPSAHL’s SIDE A/SIDE B release format which pays homage to 90s-era mixtape culture and diversifies her genre-bending sound, with each volume playing into a different side of UPSAHL. Also out today is the playfully seductive “WET WHITE TEE SHIRT” (A SIDE) lyric video, which shows UPSAHL throwing herself a pool party complete with floaties, a kiddie pool and the titular garment. (Watch HERE.)

In “SICK PRETTY MIND,” produced by Kill Dave, UPSAHL couples haunting vocals with gritty instrumentals to create a track that, much like UPSAHL’s mind, is “twisted and dark but kind of a vibe.”

The SIDE A, SIDE B release format pays homage to 90s-era mixtapes and illustrates the duality and range of UPSAHL. Her first installment of THE PHX TAPES comprised of “GOOD GIRL ERA,” an upbeat, infectious track that invites the listener to chant along as she voices her frustration with green juice, pilates, and trying to be “good.” The accompanying video is a cartoonish, Jekyll and Hyde-esque battle between the two sides of UPSAHL (WATCH HERE). Meanwhile, B SIDE “CONDOMS” is a stripped-down melody that’s emotional yet comical, putting her vocal prowess at the forefront as she sings about “burying her problems into no-name lovers” (WATCH HERE). Upon release, Ladygunn raved “This young and talented artist making waves in the music industry with her catchy beats, relatable lyrics, and undeniable talent.”

This summer, UPSAHL will perform at several international festivals including Rock en Seine, Reading Festival, and Pinkpop to name a few,, before making her Red Rocks debut in Morrison, CO on June 20 with Oliver Tree. Later this summer she will also perform at Lollapalooza (August 6) and Outside Lands (August 13), before joining Tove Lo on tour this fall. See below for full routing below.

These tour dates follow on the heels of her astrology-themed EP, Sagittarius. On the EP, UPSAHL offers listeners an introspective glimpse into her dynamic personality and explores the multifaceted experience of being a Sagittarius. A purveyor of self-love and confidence, it revolves around themes of acceptance, tapping into inner strength, and resilience. Read more via Rolling Stone HERE
