Sophia Kennedy's new album "Squeeze Me", out May 23rd.

“Squeeze Me” – a request in the colourful world of toy shops. In the warm glow of department store lights, it comes across as a delicious temptation, but behind the charming invitation of lifeless plush and plastic faces, something else might lie hidden. On Squeeze Me, the seemingly innocent is turned mischievously askew: Are you holding me close or squeezing me too tight, embracing or crushing me? This is the central question Kennedy pursues with sublime and unwavering determination.

Following her self-titled debut, a radiant dance between the glamour of the Great American Songbook, electronic textures, and clubland influences, earning her international acclaim, Kennedy released her second album, Monsters, and delved deeper into surrealism and transcendence. Now, on Squeeze Me, Kennedy and her long-time musical collaborator & co-writer Mense Reents sketch a more disillusioned commentary on the status quo of the world at large.

Okay, so I didn’t sleep last night - and I’m having a fucking cup of tea.
I’ve never understood people who actually enjoy a cup of tea - until now.
Monsters is out now. It’s OUT NOW! OUT NOW.
Alongside with a new video to ‚Seventeen‘ - a collection of memories.

This has been SUCH a ride. Thank You’s & Deeptalk later.
I’m so so so SO excited.

Love
