Leeds-based musician Amber Strawbridge, known by her stage name Bored at My Grandma's House (BAMGH), is set to release her debut album, Show & Tell, on June 7, 2024. She has previously gained critical acclaim in the wake of her debut EP, “Sometimes I Forget You're Human Too” and her recent single “Inhibitions” in late 2023.
Recorded with CLUE Records, a label known for its association with artists such as The Wedding Present, Van Houten and YOWL, the title track, “Show & Tell”, is described as a mix of dream-pop, bedroom-pop, and shoegaze, with echoes of influences such as Soccer Mommy, Snail Mail and Alvvays. His shimmering guitar work blends seamlessly with Strawbridge's introspective lyrics, exploring themes of trust and self-preservation. As she explains: “Show & Tell” is a very spontaneous song about me being the opposite of an open book and all the little specific things about me that I sometimes wish were different. Overall, it's about being a guarded person and being afraid of the possibility of being vulnerable, and realizing that vulnerability is actually a beautiful thing and something I shouldn't be so afraid of.”
