SWEETBREADS SHARES "OPEN MIC" MUSIC VIDEO WATCH HERE

Sweetbreads, the project of New York City-based singer and songwriter Melody Stolpp, shares the official music video for her new single, “Open Mic.” The visual captures the song’s themes of ambition, connection, and the bittersweet pursuit of a dream. Directed by Alee Ruggieri, the “Open Mic” video follows a lonely clown navigating the streets of New York City, moving between a stark black-and-white reality and a vibrant Technicolor dream after encountering an angel. Inspired by the song’s reflections on ambition, obsession, and the search for connection, the visual explores the fragile space between hope and disappointment, mirroring the emotional contrasts at the heart of Sweetbreads’ storytelling. Blending indie-folk, alt-country, and sharp storytelling, Sweetbreads writes with empathy, curiosity, and unflinching sincerity. Her music explores family dynamics, relationships, anxiety, optimism, and the complicated beauty of everyday life. Since fully dedicating herself to music in 2020, Sweetbreads has become known for heartfelt live performances and a collaborative spirit that has fostered a growing creative community around her work. She has performed at New York City venues including Union Pool and Arlene’s Grocery, and later this year will embark on an East Coast run with fellow singer-songwriter Jackqueline Hackett. With “Ben,” “Satisfy,” and now “Open Mic,” Sweetbreads continues to introduce the emotional world of Punisher of Love. Produced by Quinn Devlin, the album deepens her exploration of love, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of both. Punisher of Love will be out September 25.
