BIO:
Mal Blum is a multi-disciplinary artist and performer who has long been recognized as a unique and influential voice in music due to their songwriting talent and ability to consistently incorporate authenticity, wit, story and humor into their work.

Blum joins the WIRED booking roster on the heels of new LP , The Villain (out via Get Better Records), a striking album that combines the artist’s trademark blend of searing and wry lyricism with novel boldness and slight camp amongst a backdrop of textured alt-rock and pop instrumentation.

“Blum's songs practically brim over with clever ideas and keen observations, interspersed with notes of raw, unvarnished humanity.” - NPR

“what distinguishes Blum’s music from others working at the nexus of punk, pop, and confessional songwriting: specifically, Blum’s ability to diffuse difficult thoughts with humor and their fascination with the metaphysical gap between one’s presence among others and one’s internal experience.” - PASTE

“[Mal Blum] slyly confronts stereotypes about masculinity and gender non-conformity [...] designing a thoughtful, curious record that leaves room for sacred rage.” - Pitchfork

“Mal Blum is back and they’re badder than ever” -THEM
