"Mirror" is a punchy guitar driven bop commenting on the comfort people feel maintaining the status quo, over dueling guitar harmonies and dynamic vocals. '2' is a followup to TIFFY's debut LP ‘So Serious’ via Totally Real Records. A stirring coming-of-age narrative outlining the tumultuous path through social media, social disconnection, heartbreak and the drive for achievement. Heavily influenced by bedroom pop and punk rock distilled through her compositional magic, her hook-loaded confessional songwriting recalls the dusky, kaleidoscopic musical approach of indie rock contemporaries Speedy Ortiz and Jay Som with irresistible melodies that harken to peak-era Weezer. The lushly slack “Don’t Take It Personally” was inspired by an experience with a friend growing distant during lockdown, a heavenly church organ breakdown adding to the song’s confessional feel. The massively anthemic “In Jest” is built around a chewy riff and the act of taking the piss without getting too hurt about it, while the serpentine shoegaze of “Vying” is accompanied by Sammy’s musings about the digital age’s attention economy. Then there’s the winsome punk-pop of “Social Sliding,” which captures the generational yearning to detach from the social ladders we all continue to climb in vain. Currently Boston-based, Sammy grew up in California and fell in love with the crunchy and catchy rock that dominated ‘90s radio airplay. She played countless shows establishing her as a formidable live presence in the Boston and New England music scenes over the past 5 years, opening for national acts such as Speedy Ortiz and others, and playing venues to festivals such as Thing in the Spring
