Ryan Guldemond, frontman of Vancouver viral TikTok stars Mother Mother, has announced a solo project. It's called GLDMTH — which is pronounced "Gold Mouth" — and he has shared the new single "The People" from his self-titled debut album. GLDMTH is out September 23 through Warner.
GLDMTH is said to be a multimedia art project that combines music, photography, videography and poetry.
Lead single "The People" is a quiet, stately piano ballad adorned with swelling strings and some ambient background chatter. Guldemond said in a statement, "This is my favourite song on the album. The chords and the mood opened up a space where I felt like I could be really honest about who I am, which like everybody, I imagine, is a lot of different and contrasting people. 'A drugger, a drinker, a monk up on a hill in Nirvana.' I've been through all of those phases, and though I may not be living some of them out any longer, the voices of those characters are still very much alive and vocal in the darker spaces of my mind."
Check out the song's lyric video, featuring photography and creative direction by Guldemond, below. GLDMTH's tracklist is below that.
GLDMTH:
1. You Did It
2. Alone Again
3. The Symphony
4. Oh Life
5. Letting Go
6. Start Today
7. Feelings
8. The People
9. To Love You
