Eliza McLamb will release her new album Going Through It on January 19th. By the time you hit bottom, you’ve reached the midpoint of Going Through It, a song called “16” that bluntly recalls a year of familial and personal turmoil that made McLamb the songwriter she is today. “I’ve no idea why I didn’t kill myself, frankly,” she says. McLamb survived, but the trauma lingers. “Side A of the record is ‘show me everything,’” she says. “Side B asks: ‘How do I take this with me?’”

McLamb self-described “16,” as “the best song on the record” and rightfully so. “16” is a true distillation of McLamb’s exemplary songwriting and features minimalistic electronic production and layered vocals. The result is a powerful single that implores listeners to sit with intimate reflections and revelations. The track, follows the previously released tracks “Anything You Want,” “Glitter,” and “Mythologize Me” singles. McLamb enlisted close confidant and collaborator Sarah Tudzin to make the record at Bear Creek Studio in rural Washington, where Big Thief recorded U.F.O.F., an album McLamb holds dear.

McLamb is the co-host of the podcast Binchtopia which just received much deserved recognition from The New York Times in their deep dive into the exciting new wave of female creators. McLamb also has her Substack where she publishes personal and investigative essays. While both of those avenues offer insight into McLamb’s mind, it’s the music that helps her work through the past. “I sit down to write when I’m feeling a certain way and I don’t know why,” she says. “It’s a process of translating an emotional reality into a musical one, something that can be easily shared.”
