Scottish club hyphenate TAAHLIAH has laid out plans for new album ‘Gramarye’.
The incoming album is TAAHLIAH’s broadest statement to date, a work that blends her singular imagination with a passion for collaboration. In part sparked by her experiences on a creative commission with the London Contemporary Orchestra in 2023, she pushes her music to be as broad as it can be.
In addition to this, ‘Gramarye’ – the title is a nod to the Scottish root of the word ‘glamour’ – contrasts with her AIM Award-winning EP ‘Angelica’ with its passion pursuit of the personal. “I always knew this record would somehow inhabit my emotions,” she says. “Angelica was about my body, whereas Gramarye is about my mind.”
Out on October 18th, the record is available to pre-order now, with TAAHLIAH sharing all-new song ‘2018’ as a preview.
Penned alongside friend and collaborator Naafi in a travelodge in Dundee, it went on to benefit from contributions by the likes of Dev Hynes aka Blood Orange and Tsatsamis.
TAAHLIAH says “the song is about that relationship you happen to experience when you’re 19 that leaves you bruised and battered for a disproportionate amount of time afterwards. The lyrics are so desperate and exposing. I needed a way to capture this very fervent but embryonic time in my life. It’s one of the oldest songs on my new record”.
