Art School Girlfriend

Art School Girlfriend, the musical moniker of Polly Mackey, emerged from the shadows of Margate, England, bringing a brooding blend of electronic pop and ethereal soundscapes to the forefront of the indie music scene. Before adopting the persona of Art School Girlfriend, Mackey was the frontwoman of Welsh shoegaze band Deaf Club. However, it wasn't until she moved to Margate and became part of its burgeoning arts scene that she began her solo venture, capturing the isolation and introspection of her coastal surroundings in her music.

Her oeuvre includes a mixture of haunting vocals, atmospheric instrumentals, and deeply personal lyrics, a style that has been steadily defining her place in the music world since her debut. Songs like "Is It Dark Where You Are" and "Heaven Hanging Low" exemplify her ability to weave melancholic narratives with electronic beats, creating immersive experiences for her listeners. Through a series of well-received singles and profound remixes, such as "The Weeks (Cameo Blush Remix)" and "Out There (Kloyd Remix)," Art School Girlfriend has not only showcased her versatility but also her collaborative spirit in the realm of modern electronic music. Her work, while evocative of her own experiences, invites listeners into a shared space of introspection and emotion, marking her as a compelling voice in contemporary music.
