“It’s got that super endearing bedroom pop sound that balances a casual and easy-going mood with crisp production and vocals. And I’m happy to say Thomas is walking the tightrope like a pro!” – Declan Byrne, triple j
“This is a very charming and idiosyncratic pop track from Thomas Porter…..he’s putting the (locked down in your) bedroom in bedroom pop.” – Dave Ruby Howe, triple j unearthed
“Thomas Porter is someone with a tonne of talent inside of them, and now, it’s finally getting shown to the world.” – Pilerats

Sydney’s very own master of collaboration Thomas Porter is bringing his signature bedroom pop flavour back with brand-new single ‘BLUEBLUEBLUE’ featuring vocals from dee holt, out today via Dew Process.
Produced by Porter himself, the duo’s vocals snuggly fit into one another’s as they do the awkward back-and-forth “do you wanna come over” invite in the hopes of a potential hook-up, not knowing where you stand when you first start seeing someone.
Porter says of the single, “This song is about a moment, and a feeling. I think the reason I chose the title “BLUEBLUEBLUE” because I couldn’t imagine anything else capturing that feeling of joy and happiness, and I’m so excited for everyone to hear the song for the first time and understand exactly what I mean. On top of all of that, Dee does a flawless job of giving a voice to that feeling of calm contentment, and I couldn’t imagine sharing the stage of this song with anyone else. I can’t wait for the world to hear this tune and feel the same feelings I had while slowly putting it together!”
dee says, “I absolutely love the song. It’s so catchy and easy to listen to. I love the lyrics and the melody, although, what first caught my attention about the track was really Porter’s voice. I love how our voices ending up mixing and sounding together. I think it adds a lot of flavour to the song and makes us stand out :)”
‘BLUEBLUEBLUE’ follows on from debut single ‘Tired’ which gained interest from Pilerats, triple j & unearthed and set the tone for what to expect from a Thomas Porter song. A collaborator by nature, he has found a posse of artists that he has collaborated with including biblemami, Brewer, Rojdar, Tia Gostelow to name a few.
With more singles and an EP set for release in 2022, it’s just the first taste of more dreamy things to come for the young singer-songwriter.
“For me this feels like pop music for people that don’t necessarily want to admit they love pop music in a lot of ways,” says Porter. “I’m hoping that people see the honesty of it. That they see real rawness and authenticity. Authenticity is so hard to come by now. I’m a lot of things and I’m not a lot of things, but I realise that all I have is this.”
