Letras de canciones de Blu DeTiger

Singer and bassist Blu DeTiger makes arty funk- and disco-influenced indie pop. She first garnered buzz in 2017 playing funky bass during her DJ sets before releasing her own tracks, including 2020's "Figure It Out" and "Cotton Candy Lemonade."
A native of Manhattan, DeTiger grew up in a creative family the daughter of sculpture and painter Johnny DeTiger. She started playing bass at age seven and grew up taking rock and jazz theory lessons. By her teens, she was drawing inspiration from classic funk outfits like Cameo, Prince, and Zapp, and was mentored by esteemed players like Jerry Barnes (Nile Rodgers and Chic) and Steven Wolf (Alicia Keys, P!NK). She began DJ'ing around New York and quickly gained a hip reputation for her ability to spin records while adding her own funky bass grooves to the mix. Musicians took notice and she eventually hit the road, touring with artists like Caroline Polachek, Kitten, and the Knocks. Along the way, she started turning heads with her own music, releasing tracks like 2019's "In My Head." The following year, DeTiger earned yet more internet fame when a video of her playing bass to Meghan Thee Stallion's "Savage" went viral. Around the same time, she released another original track with the laid-back "Figure It Out." In October 2020, the single "Cotton Candy Lemonade" appeared. ~ Matt Collar
