Sad13 - Slugger
Today Sadie Dupuis of Speedy Ortiz unveiled her first solo album, Slugger, under the moniker Sad13. The album is due out Nov. 11, was entirely self-produced, written and recorded by Dupuis, and will be released by Carpark Records. The album is available for preorder on CD/vinyl here and on iTunes here.
“I wanted to make songs that were the opposite of ‘Genie in A Bottle’ or ‘The Boy Is Mine,’” says Dupuis of Slugger. “Songs that put affirmative consent at the heart of the subject matter and emphasize friendship among women and try to deescalate the toxic jealousy and ownership that are often centered in romantic pop songs.” The themes in the album certainly position Sad13 alongside feminist indie and punk contemporaries like Tacocat, Waxahatchee, Mitski and Bully. The musical elements are reminiscent of Grimes, Charli XCX, Santigold and others.

Stream the bedroom-pop, pro-consensual single from the album, “Get a Yes,” below, and find the Slugger tracklist and artwork beneath that.
Lead single “Get A Yes” is the prime example of this. The track is a slightly wobbly, utterly giddy tune that, as Dupuis told NPR, “explores the excitement inherent in getting and giving consent.” In an undeniable chorus, she finds a way to turn a very serious and prominent issue into something that’s fun, honest, and — yes — even sexy in its own way. “I say yes to the dress when I put it on,” she sings. “I say yes if I want you to take it off/ I say yes for your touch when I need your touch/ I say yes if I want to.”
