GFOTY, an acronym for "Girlfriend of the Year," is the moniker of British musician and artist Polly-Louisa Salmon, who has been making waves in the underground pop and electronic music scenes. As a former member of the avant-garde PC Music collective, which gained attention for its hyper-real take on pop aesthetics and sounds, GFOTY carved out a niche with her irreverent attitude and experimental approach to music production. She began gaining traction with early releases such as "GFOTYBUCKS" and "Call Him A Doctor", which showcased her distinctive blend of humor, satire, and club-ready beats.

Since those earlier works, GFOTY has continued to push the boundaries of genre and taste with singles like "FEMMEDORM" and "KOOKS SONG," exhibiting her flair for catchy melodies wrapped in a sardonic edge. Her track "FISH IN LAKE" reveals her ability to shift between styles, incorporating elements of pop and more abstract sounds. Similarly, her remix of "stupid horse" alongside Count Baldor demonstrates her willingness to rework and reinterpret material with her unique signature. Albums like "GFOTYBUCKS : RED CUPS" further solidify her reputation as an artist unafraid to experiment while maintaining a strong, characterful presence in the music world. With a talent for combining satire with earworm hooks, GFOTY stands as a bold voice in contemporary electronic pop music.
