Katy Ohsiek (of Foamboy) trades disco-pop glitz for the after-hours introspection of her solo debut, Troublemaker. This nine-song venture is a confident, genre-skipping conversation, melding bossa nova grooves with raw, ‘90s-alt bursts. Highlights like the jarring, cathartic “Fuck me!” and the jazzy guitar eruption of “Last Time/Next Time” showcase a songwriting prowess that turns messy self-reflection into intimate, hook-driven indie gold. Though it occasionally leans inward, Ohsiek’s wry, honest lyricism ensures this collection of fuzzy guitars and fluid rhythms truly sticks.
