Heralded by NYLON as a “bold new voice in pop music,” artist-to-watch Maude Latour shares her debut album Sugar Water, out now via Warner Records. The 12-track record makes its highly-anticipated debut to acclaim from the likes of Stereogum, ELLE, PAPER, V Magazine, Rolling Stone, Billboard, and many more.
With undeniable cosmic-pop hooks and a philosophical grounding in its lyrics, the new LP was co-produced alongside longtime collaborator Mike Adubato, plus hitmakers Austen Healey (Chappell Roan, Olivia Rodrigo), Zhone (Kesha, Troye Sivan), and Alex Chapman (Troye Sivan, Kim Petras). It features recently released singles “Whirlpool,” “Too Slow”, “Cursed Romantics,” and “Comedown,” plus 8 new songs, including the euphoric opening track “Officially Mine” and title track “Sugar Water.”
About the project, Maude explains, “My debut album is about growing up and learning how to lose things, people, and love— all parts of getting older. This album is an attempt at trying to hold onto the sweetness of this short life while it is still happening. It’s my most existential, deepest thoughts coated in pop music. I hope it takes you on the journey of a lifetime.”
Next up, Maude will join FLETCHER on her upcoming US tour next month, making stops at iconic venues across the country, including Radio City Music Hall in her hometown New York City and the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. See a full list of dates below, and tickets are available now HERE.
