The track is the opener on her excellent new EP Blueberry Season.
22-year-old San Francisco singer-songwriter Cate Tomlinson has been making a name for herself as a thoughtful and captivating artist since the release of her debut single ‘Muse’ back in 2020. Since then, her consistent output and growing social media presence have seen the artist rise into something of an emerging star, with her fierce and relatable sound that resonates with all kinds of listeners.
Crafting a soaring tale of self-discovery and being true to who you are while steering into more dynamic and upbeat territory, her latest single ‘so cool so mean’ is a track that celebrates the artist exploring her identity and realising that she likes girls, boasting an anthemic and vibrant appeal that suits such a special occasion. The vocals here feel fierce and purposeful and the instrumental matches them every step of the way, making for a catchy and all-encompassing pop rock sound that is packed full of energy and attitude throughout.
