Blondshell is back and pulling no punches. With “23’s A Baby,” the raw and radiant new single teasing her upcoming album If You Asked For A Picture (out May 2 via Partisan Records), Sabrina Teitelbaum cements herself as one of indie rock’s most fearless truth-tellers.
This is the kind of song that hits like a freight train wrapped in a velvet bow, sugar-sweet harmonies crash into a tsunami of emotional reckoning, all orbiting a hook so sticky it practically etches itself into your DNA: “23’s a baby, why’d you have a baby?”
Teitelbaum's songwriting has never sounded so wide-eyed or so worn out.
There's an aching wisdom beneath the track’s nursery rhyme lilt, a sense of existential whiplash that’s equal parts generational trauma and reluctant empathy. She’s not just questioning her parents she’s questioning everything, and doing it with a grin that dares you to look away.
