Singer-songwriter Eliza McLamb is best known as the co-host of 'Binchtopia' (and for her viral hit 'Porn Star Tits'), but she's so much more than that
sings over a bursting guitar riff. “I get up late, I’m always saying/‘Man, I gotta hit the DMV’/Always bills I’m paying.” ” is a highlight on the album. But seven months later, the lyrics on that song hit a little different: McLamb has sold her car and moved cross-country from Los Angeles to New York. Bills? Always. Trips to the DMV? No longer necessary.
McLamb chronicles her cross-country move in “God Take Me Out of L.A.,” out today. It’s an acoustic rallying cry for anyone who knows the home they’ve chosen for themselves isn’t quite right — a longing to escape and start over.
One song, “Porn Star Tits,” blew up on the platform. With lightning-fast lines jam-packed with ironic observations , the two-minute track is less indie-rock song, more twisted jingle. Suddenly, she realized she could make this her career. “A pathway opened in my mind,” she says. “Either I’m going to go back to school virtually for a degree that’s going to put me almost $100,000 in the hole, or I’m going to go back to live with my parents.
McLamb signed with Royal Mountain Records, a well-respected Canadian indie label known for its past work with Alvvays and Orville Peck. Tudzin remembers being introduced to her around this time: “I was told about ‘Porn Star Tits,’ and they were like, ‘It’s crazy, because she’s having a moment on TikTok, but it’s not really her bag.’ She had so many beautiful songs in the can already, but had a little bit of a spotlight moment with kind of a goofy one-off.
