“My Meds” is the latest single from Talker’s forthcoming EP, “In Awe of Insignificance” — it’s about how feeling unmoored without them is such a bitter pill.
Talker’s latest singles wrestle with the hard stuff — doubt, depression and heartache — unpacking all her baggage for all the world to hear. And “Summerlin” and “Sad Chick” make for compelling listening.
Crooked Teeth teams up with Talker on the new single “Light Me Up,” rekindling the flames of emo/pop-punk and, in the video, searching for meaning in the desert.
