Let's face it: There's no such thing as “real life”. There is only experience and the negotiations we undertake in order to share it with other people. On her second album Blue Raspberry, the New York-based songwriter Katy Kirby dives headlong into the artifice of intimacy: the glitter smeared across eyelid creases, the smiles switched on with an electric buzz, the synthetic rose scent all over someone who's made herself smell nice just for you. An exegesis of Kirby's first queer relationship, Blue Raspberry traces the crescendo and collapse of new love, savoring each gleaming shard of rock candy and broken glass along the way.
Katy Kirby is a singer/songwriter from small-town Texas, known for her warm, articulate vocals, perceptive lyrics, and knack for attractive melodies. She inhabited a playful adult-alternative style on her debut album, Cool Dry Place, in 2021. It included touches like Omnichord, Space Echo, and trumpet in addition to a full backing band. The follow-up, 2024's Blue Raspberry, was a more earnest and warmly orchestral outing resulting from Kirby challenging herself to write love songs.
