farm emo / midwest emo / emo / indie rock / indie / alternative

“Sag” is the lead single from ‘Troubadour,’ the label debut LP from Boston’s Tiberius. Originally a solo outing for songwriter Brendan Wright (they/them), the lineup has evolved into a catchy and cacophonous four-piece. With a sound that blends Indie Punk, Alt Country and Psychedelia with confessional but conversational lyrics, Tiberius have dubbed their style “Farm Emo.”

After a series of self-releases, which received great praise and support from New England-based outlets like Allston Pudding, WMBR, and Penny Mag, ‘Troubadour’ sees Tiberius debut for Audio Antihero (Frog / Avery Friedman / CIAO MALZ). Pre-orders for the album launched on July 18th with the ‘Sag’ single included, as well as a music video, and an announcement for an August tour.

Artist Statement on “Sag”:

“Sag is about this dreaded ‘Allston to Bushwick’ pipeline we have in Boston. A lot of musicians end up using Boston to cut their teeth before heading off to New York or LA to pursue their music careers. I wrote ‘Sag’ when I was really playing the ‘comparison game’ in my head and asking myself what role I wanted music to play in my life. It was the first in a batch about looking at yourself in relation to the others around you and trying to decipher who you are without that context.“ – Brendan Wright (they/them)
