Songwriter Skye Wallace today announces details of her highly anticipated new album Terribly Good, which will be released on October 28th via Six Shooter Records. Describing the album as a love letter to herself, Terribly Good, will be Wallace’s label debut with Six Shooter. To coincide with the announcement Wallace shares her latest single “Tooth and Nail” with a video directed by Nicholas Marinelli that powerfully showcases Wallace’s steely determination to succeed. Wallace will be touring Canada this fall in support of the new album. Full tour details below.
“This record is a banger of a journey through all the messy, sometimes ugly pieces of being alive and the beauty of growing while moving through it,” says Wallace. “I realized after it was completed that it was a love letter to myself, telling me to keep going.
“Tooth and Nail shouts defiance at all the expectations of failure I’ve met along the way, be it from outside sources or my own brain. The road here has been long, but creating music that makes me whole, and getting a chance to connect with people and feeling something altogether – That’s what it’s all about.”
Shaped by an upbringing of constant motion, with collapse and rebuilding at the core, Wallace is at home with the idea that change, especially in oneself, is a constant. This truism has shaped her new songs, finished during lockdown but dealing with a time when staying in one place was wishful thinking. For Wallace, there’s both comfort and conflict in remembering and reconciling the versions of herself formed at the many stops along the way.
Wallace’s breakout single, about the frustrations of fighting against the glass ceiling, made a statement by cracking the Canadian alternative radio chart. Early credentials, including a Globe and Mail “Best 4 Canadian Albums in the World” nod in 2019, a steady stream of shows with powerhouse rockers like Crown Lands and Matt Mays and a deal with Six Shooter Records, have Wallace ready for what’s next.
Terribly Good is out via Six Shooter Records on October 28th 2022.
