About the Artist: As queer people, we often find solace in the worlds we build- for us, by us. So when rising queer artist Criibaby thought, “What would gender-neutral music sound like?” she knew: they had to create it.
Using a unique songwriting method she describes as possessing “no names, no genders, only the feelings, only the bare truths,” Criibaby’s lyrics contain no binary pronouns, and all their songs are written from an openly queer perspective in a conscious effort to create more inclusive music. Drawing inspiration from artists like Phoebe Bridgers, Portishead, Clairo, and Radiohead, Criibaby asks, “What is more human than heartbreak?” and tries to untangle the fragile beauty of yearning for human connection with her delicate, emotional vocals. Their debut album, when i’m alone i feel weightless, is set for release wherever you listen to music on September 6.
