Tash Sultana is a multi-instrumentalist, producer, singer-songwriter, engineer, and entrepreneur who is making waves with the announcement of their upcoming EP, SUGAR, set to be released on 11th August 2023 through their own label, Lonely Lands Records and available for pre-order now. Tash has withheld releasing any new projects for over two years intentionally. Fans will hear a teaser of an “album cut in half”.

Following the release of “James Dean” and “New York”, “Bitter Lovers” takes a different turn with a collaboration featuring American soul RnB artist BJ The Chicago Kid, scheduled for release on July 5th, 2023.

Tash Sultana and BJ The Chicago Kid unveil their remarkable collaboration, “Bitter Lovers”, a track that showcases their combined exceptional chemistry and creative synergy. The journey began when BJ shared a demo with Tash during their tour in September of last year. “This was one I had in the stash waiting for a good home, or I would use it myself. So happy Tash loved it as much as myself. This one will only get better with time,” says BJ. Reflecting on their collaboration, Tash Sultana explains, “Pretty sure it’s like any typical modern-day music collab. We had been following each other for a while cause I’m a fan of what he does, and lo and behold, one morning, I woke up, and there was a nice little message in my DM’s from BJ saying, ‘let’s fucking do a track.’ Now here we are.”

Tash began working on the track in their own studio, LONELY LANDS STUDIO laying down the verse and chorus harmonies and flipping the ending with beat sampling, heavy basslines, and a sax solo. But the missing piece wasn’t filled until February 2023, with the final touches laid in person at a famous Los Angeles studio. Bj’s verse was crafted on the spot, and the harmonies were laid before the verse, an interesting approach to working almost completely backwards.

“It means something different to both of us, which is why we decided to split a verse each and come together in the chorus. For me, some people just think you’re going to be waiting around forever, in any capacity, friend, lover, or family member. I got boundaries with people, and that’s what I’m getting at in this track.” Tash explains.

It is a captivating storytelling experience incorporating cryptic wording and musical style, leaving the true message open to interpretation. Tash ensures that no one will ever fully disclose the message.

As for the creative process, Tash wrote the songs for the EP in the comfort of their own home, studio, and mind, with their notebook serving as a creative companion throughout the journey. This intimate environment allowed Tash to explore their musical vision and bring it to life fully.
