Stef Chura will release her debut full-length Messes January 27th on Urinal Cake Records. Stef Chura has played around Detroit, setting up DIY shows in the area, and moving around the state—nearly 20 times.

Through intricate guitar work and warm, textured production, Messes finds her trying to make sense of life’s ups and downs. “It’s about emotional mess, not physical mess,” Chura says. “The title track is about knowing that you are going to do something the wrong way, but you’re doing it anyway because you want that experience. I’ve had to do a lot of things the wrong way in order to figure out how to live my life.” Today, Chura shares “You,” the newest song on the record. She says this about “You”:

It’s about a bad feeling and a good feeling at the same time. It’s kind of about romantic interest in that there is both pleasure and a sickening discomfort. The song is less about a crush or a specific romantic relationship, but more about power dynamics.
