On the heels of what's already been a banner year, IAN SWEET (the project of LA artist Jilian Medford) releases a new single/video, “f*ckthat” and announces her long-awaited North American headline tour. “f*ckthat” is her strongest showing yet, and an exciting look at things to come as Jilian's sound continues to evolve with pop precision. 

Produced by Manitoba duo deadmen (Royal Canoe), her voice soars in jubilant defiance over a pulsating bass line and four-on-the-floor stomp, sending its caller in question headfirst into voicemail – "My phone causes me a lot of anxiety! I really only like to use it to take videos and pictures of my dog. This song is about not wanting to answer calls anymore and wishing I could just throw it out the window and disassociate from its evil/stress inducing technology." - JM

Earlier this year, IAN SWEET released her latest album, the triumphant Show Me How You Disappear, and in July, she shared her cover of "Yellow"  by Coldplay with an accompanying video homage that faithfully recreated the original.
