Showing Teeth

Showing Teeth sonically taps into nature’s feral side. Within the span of a song, the Kentucky-born and Tennessee-based heavy music disruptor will alternate between guttural growls and anesthetizing melodies with primal unpredictability. Complemented by a “Southern American Gothic” aesthetic, she cuts a path out of the countryside’s darkest corners and reaches towering peaks of catharsis, unraveling self-doubt, alienation, and isolation against a soundtrack that crushes as it caresses. As a kid, she discovered heavy music in the most unexpected place: church camp. Around the same time, she picked up a bass guitar, drawing inspiration from Bootsy Collins and virtuosos a la Victor Wooten. Post-college, she balanced a day job with making music “for fun.” During 2023, she launched her TikTok page. An early post about heavy music went viral, and she continued to share clips of her practicing vocals and recording demos (often captured in the front seat of her Honda Accord). Settling in Nashville, she started to collaborate with producer Dan Book, multi-instrumentalist Zach Munowitz, and Periphery drummer and co-founder Matt Halpern. In late 2025, she dropped “Labyrinth,” and it left an atomic imprint on the scene, generating north of 2.1 million Spotify streams and bulldozing the way for 2026’s “Rip.” From there, she attracted both Spinefarm and Republic Records to her corner in an unprecedented alliance. Bring Me The Horizon welcomed her as an opener in Manchester, she appeared on stage with Motionless In White, and President selected her to open his sold-out 2026 tour. Clawing her way into the light now, this extreme music alchemist formally introduces herself with her debut EP, A FATE WORSE THAN LONELINESS [Republic Records/Spinefarm].
