Feature: Tig – Inside Voices
Lifting the layers on her innermost thoughts, Australian songwriter Tig reveals her anticipated debut EP ‘Inside Voices‘.
Ending a lengthy stint in the legal industry, Tig traded in her corporate career turning her focus instead to writing music, a passion she’d long forgotten. After cultivating her sound in quiet, 2023 saw Tig win the hearts of listeners with her first two singles ‘Too Late Heartbreak’ and ‘Gingerbread House‘.
Tig has unearthed her next chapter with the songs of Inside Voices now ready to become outside voices
‘After a long time away from music, I encountered two things when I tried to start writing this EP – a loud inner critic and a lot of things I was afraid to say. I stumbled across the words ‘inside voices’ that I’d written on a piece of paper years earlier and I realised that’s what the EP was about. Challenging the notion of using an ‘inside voice’ so as not to disrupt, while also questioning my own internal voice that wanted me to play it safe.’ – Tig
Keen to look inward and nurture her first body of work intuitively, Tig wrote and recorded the Inside Voices EP from her home in Naarm/Melbourne.
As the songs took shape, she brought in trusted collaborators to finesse the final collection, working with Jono Steer (Angie McMahon, Leif Vollebekk) who co-produced and mixed the EP at Dare Studios, and featuring strings arrangements by Ainslie Wills and percussion by Holly Thomas (Quivers, Husky).
Tig‘s debut EP ‘Inside Voices‘ is available to stream now.
