Biography Blondshell
Sabrina Teitelbaum aka Blondshell
Loudquietloud. The formula patented by Pixies, which gave its name to their documentary, is still a contemporary pattern that has been especially effective (Kim Deal's fault?) in American alt-rock singer-songwriters such as Snail Mail, Soccer Mommy and, sometimes, Phoebe Bridgers (and has also caught on with some Australians, like Julia Jacklin). L.A.-based New Yorker Sabrina Teitelbaum aka Blondshell, has also started her career following this mountain-valley-mountain arrangement. At least Olympus, one of her singles that has generated a buzz of excitement and drawn so much admiration (she is already going on tour with Porridge Radio), has everything that can be asked of a new indie-rock talent today: a classical air, lyrics without clichés (and they deal with sex, love/heartbreak and addiction) and youthfulness. In Kiss City, the other hit that has captured everyone's attention, she mirrors the illustrious languor of Hope Sandoval and Maria Mckee. Another indie niche that Blondshell nurtures with care, freshness and a spirit of renewal.
