 Manchester DIY shoegazer TTSSFU announces the ‘Me Jed and Andy’ EP on Fear of Missing Out Records.
 An EP inspired by the now-infamous 12-year love affair between avant-garde artist Andy Warhol and interior designer / film director Jed Johnson, ‘I Hope You Die’ is its dark, brooding opening track. Throwing spitefulness on a former partner with the gossamer beauties of a relentlessly gothic dream-pop hypnosis,
it’s also one of the EP’s most personal tracks, as TTSSFU explains: “The EP is all about how I related to Jed and Andy’s relationship and the feelings they both
experienced through a failed relationship and lack of being able to be clear with each other. But ‘I Hope You Die’ has nothing to do with the Jed and Andy thing;
that’s why the original EP name changed from ‘Jed and Andy’ to ‘Me Jed and Andy’! I think ‘I Hope You Die’ is my favourite song on there, but the most exposing one too, as I’m talking about really personal anger in quite a blunt way. I’ve not really tried to be clever and hide what that song’s about.”
 In addition to being the lead guitarist for rising Manchester band Duvet, TTSSFU aka Tasmin Stephens (she/they) has been recording, producing, mixing and mastering all their own music on Garageband since they fell in love with classic shoegaze music as a teenager. Spending the past three years self releasing a steady stream of singles and EPs, Stephens’ latest work - ‘Me Jed and Andy’ - represents their most musically and conceptually ambitious set of recordings to date.
 Available to independent retailers on 12” vinyl.
