"A fine example of hook-heavy indie pop with electronic flourishes." - FLOOD   June 2nd, 2023 – Acclaimed singer-songwriter Katelyn Tarver is set to captivate audiences once again with her highly anticipated single, "Starting to Scare Me” and its accompanying music video directed by Skyler Brown (Ethel Cain, Royal & The Serpent). The single marks an exciting new chapter in Tarver's career, coinciding with her signing announcement to Nettwerk. Additionally, the release sets the stage for Tarver's upcoming headlining tour, commencing on September 6th in San Francisco, and the reveal of her forthcoming sophomore album slated for early 2024. "Starting to Scare Me" delves into the vulnerable depths of Tarver's introspection, offering a raw and honest exploration of detrimental tendencies. The track confronts the allure of indulging in harmful behavior as a temporary escape, rather than confronting the underlying causes head-on. Tarver, known for her poignant lyricism and emotive vocals, examines her personal journey of evasion and acceptance. Sonically, the track graces the edges of nostalgia, recalling 90s influences that propel pulsing guitars and memorable hooks to the forefront.   WATCH + SHARE "STARTING TO SCARE ME" MUSIC VIDEO Katelyn Tarver shares this about “Starting to Scare Me,” "This song is about indulging in self-destructive behavior because it's easier than doing the work of looking underneath it to try and figure out what's causing it in the first place. I've spent a lot of time running from my darker impulses, pushing them down, pretending they're not there... this song is about shining a spotlight on them and kind of liking the feeling even though it... well... uh... scares me."   The release of "Starting to Scare Me" coincides with Tarver’s 21-date North American headlining tour announcement across various major cities beginning September 6th. Fellow Nettwerk pop artist Rosie Darling as well as Australian singer-songwriter Jack Gray will support on select dates. Katelyn Tarver will follow-up with a 12-date European headlining tour in November. No stranger to live performances as she has supported the likes of James Bay, Michelle Branch, Johnnyswim, and Nina Nesbitt, this is Katelyn’s first ever headlining tour which is set to showcase her magnetic stage presence and scope of her musical prowess. As anticipation builds for her upcoming album, set to be unveiled in early 2024, Katelyn Tarver's unwavering dedication to authentic storytelling and introspection will be on full display with more exciting new music throughout the year.
