goss0mer

Bristol, UK

Goss0mer is a Bristol-based 23 year old singer/songwriter, orginally from Kent. From writing songs with her childhood best friend; to releasing her debut single, 'crack open a tinny'; music has played an intrinsic role throughout her life. Maddi Lane garnered the alias 'goss0mer' - from, 'gossamer', or spiders' silk - after her teenage Instagram handle stuck. The ambiguity of a thread less dense than steel, yet, weight for weight, stronger and tougher than it, resonates with her sense of identity and creative process. An honest, relatable narrative surrounding Britain’s dependence on alcohol, ‘crack open a tinny’ provides a candid, stream of consciousness style snapshot of the experience of casual drinking. Bubbly, staccato synth carries optimistic vocals, while the underlying melody is filled with a wistful, happy-sad acquiescence.
