It’s a double whammy from Somerville’s punky one woman show: TIFFY has dropped 2, an EP that pairs two totally-new tunes with two reinventions of past releases. The new project is half-mirror, half-gazing ball, reflecting TIFFY’s original scrappy sound while also rounding out her riffs with a more lush approach to instrumentation and production. 2 lends her work a more dreamlike quality, even when she’s tumbling through the nightmarish cycles of email followups (“Lost In The Shuffle”) and the ever-changing status quo (“Mirror”). And while the EP doesn’t betray TIFFY’s early sound circa 2019’s Fire Sale, it does coat her signature “soft punk” with the slightest sheen — her own reflection, perhaps, of what’s to come. Tune in below.
