Illuminati Hotties
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
After years of uncertainty, including label disputes, unpaid royalties and a surprise (and successful) album drop, Tudzin is ready to make some noise. Her new album, Let Me Do One More, is three years in the making and Tudzin’s most defiant and accomplished record to date. Let Me Do One More is out now via Snack Shack Tracks (in partnership with Hopeless Records).
After the success of her debut album, Kiss Yr Frenemies, and coining the term “tenderpunk,” Illuminati Hotties were on their way to recording and releasing a highly-anticipated sophomore album. However, things at the label started to fall apart, and Illuminati Hotties found themselves stuck in a contract with a label that didn’t have the infrastructure to put out the album the band had been crafting for months. “It felt like any momentum came to a screeching halt. It felt painful to pick up a guitar, to write, to record any loose ends that needed to happen to wrap up the album,” Sarah recalls. With the emotional turmoil and uncertainty building over the label situation, Tudzin turned her focus to a new batch of songs that would become FREE I.H. Funneling all the raw feelings and letting go of any inhibitions, Illuminati Hotties released the collection of songs, carefully not defined as the “new album.” The critically acclaimed, fan favorite release closed the chapter on the label drama and opened up the band musically to a whole world of possibilities.
