Phoebe Go Marmalade

🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

FFO: INDIE FOLK, ALT POP / LISTEN

I didn't stumble upon Phoebe Go through her music, it was her partnership with an Australian based cycling apparel brand that first introduced me to her. The intersection of bikes and music is always an exciting place for me, but discovering a cyclist that makes actually good music sometimes feels like divine intervention. I know a bunch of music nerds don't want to hear me talk about lycra and carbon wheels, but I think the sense of freedom and presence of mind that burning legs on the open road provides can't be overlooked as a driving force in Phoebe's music. All I'm saying is, when Phoebe sings "I guess I took the corner too fast, but I was flying for a minute just to crash", she isn't talking about Nascar.

Marmalade is Continental rubber on the Gold Coast. Surfing the tailwind with sea salt in your hair. Carefree yet acutely aware of every speed bump and pothole in your path. It's also a reminder of the past, like a washed out polaroid that you just can't let go of. Phoebe's music might feel effortlessly cool, but this is a breakup record through and through—full of licked wounds and tough lessons. Early highlight "Something You Were Trying" exemplifies this dichotomy by sporting soft electric guitars and an irresistible shoulder-swaying rhythm as Phoebe recounts how it feels to pour your love into someone who never intended to give it back. This sets the bar for what you can expect from the album, but it is hardly the peak of the climb. Fourth track “7 Up” is another huge highlight and features some of Phoebe’s sharpest lyrics and catchiest vocal melodies over another gently rocking groove. “You said you’d come back for me somehow, but it freaks me out that you call it 'seven up' now” is just such a funny and clever way to express a microcosm of watching someone you love move over seas and grown into a stranger (apparently Australians refer to 7 Up and Sprite as lemonade? I’ll resist inciting a culture war over this for now), and I get a kick out of it every time I replay the track.

This aching breeze dichotomy doesn't always work in Phoebe's favour however, as it also has the effect of making the problems she presents to the listener feel inconsequential. The sad words are there, waiting like a hammer to be swung, but Phoebe's delivery is too gentle, the music too laid back, that the words often feel like paper airplanes veered off course by the wind. It's almost as if Phoebe is holding back from truly baring her teeth, but maybe her lack of contempt isn't the real issue. Marmalade is almost like a portrait of someone in a transitional state; one foot in the past, and one foot already well on it's way toward healing. It's Phoebe looking inward and shrugging, because hey, it is what it is. At least Marmalade won't break your heart, it's a charming little indie folk record that absolutely deserves thirty minutes of your day, I just can't help but hope the next iteration of Phoebe Go has a little more momentum.

Q: Finally, what is one thing you know now that you wish you knew about the music industry when you first started

P.G.: I kinda just wish I knew that the artist is always in charge. Especially in a room that makes us feel small or outnumbered.

I’ve been feeling Some of that shit I don’t believe in Saw my picture in a frame Hanging up in the hallway

And I’ve been sleeping Just to walk away the feeling Saw my picture up in flames Still hanging in the hallway

We Don't Talk by Phoebe Go

#bandcamp #phoebe go we don't talk #phoebe go #we don't talk #phoebe go player

Truth is, I think you met me at my best…

Now, under the table I’m scared to death.

Got a handful of hope, for the voice in my head

Still tying me up with every word unsaid

I wanna hand it to you, but my lace caught on the fence

Was it more than just a loose end?

Briston Maroney & Phoebe Go – First Avenue – Minneapolis, MN – February 10, 2024

Tennessee singer and songwriter Briston Maroney brought the energy during his sold-out show at the legendary First Avenue. The Ultrapure World Tour kicked off October 31st, 2023, in Brighton, UK, and as the tour moved from city to city, it's been nothing but sold-out shows, venue upgrades, festivals, high energy, and excitement.

Starting off the show was Indie Alternative artist Phoebe Go. Phoebe is no stranger to the music world, as she was a part of indie dream-pop band Snakadaktal in the 2010s and has been well versed in the music community for the last 14 years. She released her first solo five-song EP “Player” in 2022 followed by her two singles "Something You Were Trying" in 2023 and "7-up" in 2024. When the Australian artist took the stage, she was illuminated by soft warm lighting as she filled the room with a beautiful and raw set consisting of honest and genuine emotion and soft yet strong vocals. As she wrapped up her set, I'd say she definitely set the bar high for the performance to follow.

Once Briston hit the stage, the room was electric. The room was packed with fans of all ages, excitedly awaiting Briston to take the stage. Once he did the room exploded, bright and colorful light filled the space and bounced off the iridescent stage set up. He kicked off his set with "Body," "Small Talk," and "Chaos Party." Two of those songs were featured on his Ultrapure album released in 2023. In his 18-song set, Briston covered hits from his albums Sunflower: Deluxe and Ultrapure. He even visited his EPs “Carnival” and “Indiana.”

You could tell from the energy and the volume of the crowd alone that this show was different from any show on his tour. To make it even more special, Briston welcomed Jake Luppen from Minnesota band Hippo Campus on stage to cover "Boys Don't Cry" by The Cure. Before his encore, Briston sang his well-known and loved song "Freakin’ Out on the Interstate" before he ended his show with "Sink; Swim" and "Ultrapure" itself. To say I was excited for this show is an understatement. Briston Maroney truly knows how to bring an amazing show and feed off the energy of his crowds. Definitely a tour worth seeing."
