CHASE TREMAINE READIES NEW SINGLE “TIRED SIDE OF CONTENT” AHEAD OF NEW STUDIO ALBUM

In “Tired Side of Content” is the third and final single from Chase Tremaine’s forthcoming third album, Accidental Days: a song that marries bold proclamations and evocative imagery with the most urgent and immediately gratifying alt-rock of Tremaine’s burgeoning career.

Never before have the varied strengths and influences of the multi-instrumentalist – ranging from prog and post-hardcore to boy bands and smooth jazz – been so streamlined and focused than it is on “Tired Side of Content,” which manages to sound accessible and catchy while still boasting an adventurous, unpredictable edge. The song is poised to capture the ears of new fans while capturing the imagination of old fans, who (in the words of Tremaine) “should be on the lookout for multiple musical winks and nods to songs from the first two albums.”

The artwork for the single cheekily includes the definition for “con-TENT” (to be satisfied), as not to be confused with “CON-tent” (information, material), even though the single will surely be considered mere “online content” by some. For Tremaine, “Tired Side” means much more: it is his striving point, his melodic reminder of the mindset he hopes to have in life. “I don’t want to spend my life thinking I can’t be happy if, you know, I don’t get a good night’s sleep,” Tremaine says about the song’s lyrics. “This song is my reminder that I can be joyful and satisfied, even if I’m tired or weak or just failing and flailing, as long as my life is being used to love and serve other people.”

Accidental Days is a 10-track collection about the complex intersections between faith, friendship, work, heartbreak, and aging, across an expansive set of pop-rock compositions influenced by emo, math, post-hardcore, and jazz. Producer Brendan St. Gelais (known for his work with Carver Commodore, Zane Vickery, and Bre Kennedy) has pushed Tremaine’s sound into new levels of richness, depth, and beauty, while maintaining the emo-inflected authenticity, intricate guitar work, and lush vocals that have been his trademark since he released his debut Unfall in 2020.

“Tired Side of Content” hits all streaming services and digital outlets on February 3, 2023, following the success of singles such as “Middle of My Words,” “Matter,” and “Fear Not Want.” Accidental Days is set to release on March 10, 2023. The album is produced, engineered, and mixed by Brendan St. Gelais, mastered by Sean Power at The Hilson Studio, and released independently in partnership with Post Emo Records.

French singer Yseult has released FREAK, her third studio album, out now through her own label, Y.Y.Y. The 12 track record arrived on October 30, 2026, and it presents the artist fully in command of her work, writing, shaping and releasing the album on her own terms.

The tracklist runs Daddy (intro), 1-800 Adults Only, Heart Attack, Freak featuring JT, S#xx, Is It a Crime, Superstar, Dear God, S#x Youself, Now or Never, One More Time and a closing original version of Freak. One More Time was co-written with Rachel West, Jarrett Goodly, known as Sensei Bueno, and Harry Charles. The JT collaboration places Yseult alongside one of American rap’s most electric voices, while the rest of the record swings between provocation and vulnerability, club pressure and confessional calm.

Yseult, born Yseult Onguenet, has built her career by refusing every box offered to her, moving from French pop beginnings into a sound and image that answer to no format. Releasing FREAK through her own imprint is the logical next step in that story: ownership as artistry. She announced the album to her fans as a celebration and urged them to buy it, speaking with the directness that has made her one of the most compelling figures in French music. With FREAK out in the world, Yseult owns the masters, the message and the moment. The campaign carried her signature theatrical humor, pairing the rollout with an Aretha Franklin reference for her followers, and everything about the release feels deliberate. FREAK is streaming now.
