Last we heard from Ian Sweet — aka LA indie-pop performer Jilian Medford — she’d released a shot-for-shot remake of Coldplay’s “Yellow” video. Likewise, Medford’s latest album, Show Me How You Disappear, dropped earlier in the year, back in March. Now, Medford’s got a brand-new song and video for “F*ckThat,” featuring the pink-haired singer interacting with an array of old technology (landlines! Y2K-era desktops!). As for the song, it’s an ultra-catchy pop banger, complete with shimmery synths, echoing drum machines, and Medford’s breathy vocals.
Additionally, in support of Show Me How You Disappear, Medford has unveiled a run of 2022 US tour dates with Bnny in the opening slot. Check those out below. Tickets go on sale on October 1.
