This will be Fish’s third time heading out on tour this year. Earlier in 2024, he toured Europe and separately Hawaii/Australia/New Zealand in promotion of his EP Intercession Before Charlotte.
CHARLOTTE, dropping on August 23rd, is a raw collection of songs that explore the highs and lows of love, ambition, and self-actualization. It probes deep into themes of memory, attachment, loss, and growth, and the psychology behind all of these human experiences. While Montell wrote the record, the continuation of the trilogy that began with Jamie (2022), Fish read about psychology, memory, and childhood; the ideas of Freud and Jung provided thoughtful stimulation as he crafted songs that explore growth and attachment—romantic and otherwise. Through lyrics relating to love, power, failure, and success – all universal to the human experience– Montell uses these themes to highlight the same feelings and situations he’s experienced since the formulation of Jamie, in regards to his own struggle with leaving his faith, and learning to lose and move on from those who were a part of that old audience, team and online fan base. The album comes on the heels of the EP Intercession Before Charlotte, released under his dj gummy bear moniker, which dropped on March 15th.
About Montell Fish:
Across albums, EPs, and side projects, singer-songwriter Montell Fish has plumbed the depths of his emotions and intellect. With each release, he’s constructed further a layered tower of references and metaphors that shakes and sways with the anxieties of a gifted young person straining to reconcile the contradictions of the world: in love, in religion, in art, and in faith. It’s the kind of music that inspires intense feelings and fandom. On his latest album CHARLOTTE, the follow-up to his 2022 breakout album Jamie, Fish loves thinking about life’s big questions: how does childhood shape a person? What does it mean to have a gift the world wants access to? Raised in a strictly religious household and now out in the world on his own making his art, Fish has a boundaryless curiosity about ways of living and creating.
