Slayyyter is touring with her ferocious new album, Troubled Paradise (2021) – a critically acclaimed hyperpop ensemble that signals the dawning of a new era for the self-made popstar. The album draws from the most dramatic, almost surreal, sides of pop culture – Y2K gloss, nu metal, and cheerleader chants – exemplified by the album’s lead single ‘Self Destruct (feat. Wuki)’. Other popular releases include the viral club anthem ‘Throatzillaaa’‘Butterflies…’‘Clouds’‘Cowboys’ and title track ‘Troubled Paradise’.

The retro-futuristic songstress’ debut self-titled mixtape, Slayyyter (2019), peaked at #4 on the US iTunes Pop Chart and #14 on the US iTunes Albums Chart. Singles such as ‘BFF’‘Daddy AF’ and ‘Mine’ snatched critical praise from Rolling Stone, NME, The FADER, V Magazine, Idolator, Paper Magazine, and more. A devout acolyte of early 2000’s pop icons such as Christina Aguilera, Lady Gaga and Britney Spears, her early work is full of nostalgia – Slayyyter released a remix of Britney Spears’ ‘Gimme More’ in 2020 which now has over 7.5 million views on YouTube. She also features alongside Kim Petras on Charli XCX’s ‘Click (No Boys Remix)’.

Slayyyter has also been announced on the 2023 Groovin the Moo line up, which will see her take on several regional cities alongside GTM 2023 line-up artists alt-J (UK), Confidence Man (AU), Fatboy Slim (UK), Laurel (UK), Royel Otis (AU) and many more. Tickets and info via: gtm.net.au
