On April 7 Blondshell (aka Sabrina Teitelbaum) will release her highly anticipated self-titled debut album via Partisan Records.

Today she gives listeners a special treat by way of her take of The Cranberries' deep cut "Disappointment" - a fan favorite that she played all last month on her sold-out tour with Suki Waterhouse. It's a non-album track, yet a powerful display of this artist-to-watch's eye-popping vocal range & use of loud/soft dynamics.

Of the track, Blondshell says, "I wanted to sing a song off of No Need To Argue, which is one of my favorite albums ever. Dolores' voice carries so much emotion throughout the entire album, not just on the big hits like 'Zombie,' but on the more understated songs as well. 'Disappointment' hits me so hard because it feels like heartbreak disguised as apathy. I wanted to sing the song how I heard it, with the intensity of the pain behind those airy, relaxed vocals and drums."

The song premiered on The Matt Wilkinson Show on Apple Music and you can listen to it here. To accompany the cover Blondshell has also released a lyric video made up of both digital and super-8 footage of her recent hometown show at the Fonda in LA. Watch the clip here:

Blondshell is also excited to announce her first headline tour of North America. The dates kick off July 7 in Portland, OR and conclude in San Francisco, CA on August 4. Along the way she will stop in New York City on July 19 and Los Angeles, CA on August 2. Brooklyn's Hello Mary will be the support for most of the tour.

Additionally, Blondshell will make her return to Austin for SXSW 2023 followed by a headline tour of the UK and Europe and slots at The Great Escape, London Calling, Wide Awake Festival, and Primavera Sound. All dates are below and tickets are on sale this Friday, here.
