Blood On the Silver Screen

Description

After establishing herself with the poised melancholia of her eponymous 2019 debut, SASAMI embraced volume and control on 2022’s ‘Squeeze’, touring with a metal band, but her goal on ‘Blood On the Silver Screen’ was to speak her truth with conviction by singing.

Working with co-producers Jenn Decilveo and Rostam, with SASAMI as sole writer, each ‘Blood On the Silver Screen’ track viscerally captures a different thread of love, sex, power and embodiment. “Pop music is like fuel,” says SASAMI. “It’s just invigorating.

SASAMI was influenced by modern country storytelling, mixing vulnerability with humour, and the mood board also included Prince, Japanese city pop, and the stadium-sized, denim-clad iconography of Bruce Springsteen.
