Annabel Gutherz is ready for her closeup in her new single and video Showtime, Baby! — showcasing today on Tinnitist.
Combining classic rock sounds with modern pop melodies, Showtime, Baby! glistens with a sun-soaked sentimentality as Gutherz delves into the duality between her desire for validation and her need for genuine connection.
“If life is a stage, am I always performing?” she wonders. “This is a central question in Showtime, Baby!, where I explore the tension between living authentically for myself and living to meet others’ expectations. It addresses the fray of seeking approval and belonging while striving to be truly seen and understood for who I am. Ultimately, I’ve learned that prioritizing my own feelings and experiences is essential, as it’s the only way to lead my every day with purpose and meaning and foster deep happiness.”
Born and raised in Montreal, Gutherz creates timeless music that speaks to the soul of what it means to be human. Combining her compelling and diaristic storytelling with honeyed melodies, distinct vocals, and her keen musical intuition, her songs take listeners on a heartfelt journey packed with raw honesty and emotional conviction.
Since the release of her 2021 album Loose Ends, she has continued to develop her sound by working with an array of esteemed collaborators, including Bleu McAuley (Selena Gomez, Demi Lovato, Jonas Brothers) and Bonnie Hayes (Bonnie Raitt, Bette Midler, David Crosby). Fiercely committed to her craft, Annabel also holds a degree in songwriting from Berklee College of Music.
