Los Angeles-based artist and producer Pool Girl has released her highly anticipated debut EP, Trophy Wife, an ethereal exploration of coming-of-age themes.
Produced by: Michl
Trophy Wife, released through APOLLO Distribution, introduces Pool Girl’s unique sonic identity, drawing from themes of femininity, perfectionism, and self-discovery. The EP opens with the immersive ‘Intro,’ setting the stage for the following contemplative soundscapes. ‘Translucent’ reveals Pool Girl at her most vulnerable, with lyrics expressing a longing to be seen and understood. In her words, “‘Translucent’ is one of the most honest songs I’ve written. It’s about not having the words to describe what you’re going through but wishing you could be heard, seen, and understood.” The track’s electronic-infused atmosphere amplifies this desire for connection, conjuring a vivid, visual journey for listeners.
Other highlights include ‘Champagne,’ a beachy, laid-back song with a nostalgic feel, and ‘Spinning,’ an energizing addition to her evolving discography. Trophy Wife embodies Pool Girl’s artistic versatility, balancing expansive, electronic arrangements with thoughtful lyrics.
With Trophy Wife, Pool Girl establishes herself as a compelling new voice in the indie-electronic music scene, offering music that resonates on a personal and universal level.
