Diving into Nonfiction, the debut record from multi-instrumentalist Sara Abdelbarry under the nom de plume Teen Idle, and fans of those charming Indie Pop singles that preceded the album immediately get a treat in the form of the 1-2-3 punch of “Saccharine”, Birthday Cake”, and “Norway” all in a row to start as a refreshing reminder of why they’re here in the first place. And for new fans, this trio of tracks is just the prologue to an earnest aural novel that’s perfect for the current changing of the seasons.

Expanding the sonic palette that began with “Birthday Cake” and carried over into “Norway”, Teen Idle’s latest single “Saccharine” is some next level musical mastery from an artist who is already proving to be THE one to watch in 2023 with each passing release (Which all leads to full-length Nonfiction arriving on September 29th).

“Saccharine” might be the most intricate yet in Sara Abdelbarry’s aural arsenal. A track that’s vibrant, vivacious, and glistening seemingly all at the same time and fully utilizing the “multi-instrumentalist” tag that Abdelbarry justly brandishes, “Saccharine” is playful yet poised bringing some soothing (And sexy?) saxophone sounds into the arena along with a bouncing bass line and Samir Tawalare’s divine drumming once again accenting the underlying grooves.

“Saccharine” is out now through H1 MASSIVE. You can get your copy by heading here and for more from Teen Idle, including ALL the deets on that aforementioned incoming full-length, follow the trail of socials by heading here, here, or here.

Follow-up’s can be a tricky thing. There’s a need to maintain a certain status quo so that any new fans you gained from the last release stay the course but also there’s a need to diversify and show range because who wants the same thing over and over, right? Sara Abdelbarry as Teen Idle goes for a nice mix of splitting it down the middle with new single “Norway” ahead of debut full-length Nonfiction which is coming your way soon!
