total tommy today releases her first new music since her critically acclaimed debut album album, bruises,released at the end of 2024. New single Butterknife is a breakthrough moment for total tommy—gritty, guitar-driven alt-rock that dives into the tension between ego, purpose, and the toll of chasing an all-consuming dream.
On Butterknife, total tommy says
“Butterknife was a real breakthrough songwriting moment for me – it’s about grappling with feeling selfish for pursuing what can be a really ego-driven artform at times and the strain it puts on relationships. Being a musician sometimes feels like a bit of a ‘death wish’, because it’s literally an all in, live and breathe kinda thing. I love what I do so much, and it made me realise that the moment you start sharing music with the world and it’s no longer just for yourself, you have a role to play in not just adding to the noise but doing something constructive with it. So that’s really nice to keep in mind now!“
