There has to be a bigger,better word for excited, because how we feel about the debut album, “On The Phone With My Mom”, from Indie-pop luminary Maddie Regent, is definitely more than excited. You can listen to “On The Phone With My Mom” on Spotify Here, Apple Music Here

Crafted in collaboration with her creative partner and significant other, producer and songwriter Cade Hoppe in their Brooklyn home studio, the album is her most fearless and fully realized work to date. Seamlessly blending shimmering pop melodies with razor-sharp introspection, On the phone with my mom captures Maddie at her most raw, radiant, and self-assured.

The 14 track album features previously released singles—“Sleeptalking,” “Turtleneck,” “Miss Virgo,”The other shoe,” “The wolf,” and “You could break my heart”—alongside seven brand-new songs that reveal her most adventurous and vulnerable songwriting yet. With sharp lyricism and undeniable hooks, the album dives into the messiness of human emotion, striking a delicate balance between nostalgia and newfound clarity.

“On The Phone With My Mom”, feels like an important musical moment, where Maddie Regent, shows the world the magic, and the beauty of her one of a kind artistry.

At its core, On the phone with my mom is a meditation on the paradox of femininity. “The album explores the idea that girlhood feels inescapable, womanhood seems unattainable, and yet, somehow, transitioning from one to the other feels essential for survival. They either exist as entirely separate entities or blur into one indistinguishable experience,” Maddie shares.

Every track, on , “On The Phone With My Mom “ has us hanging on every word and melody. We felt absolutely captivated by the the title track, “On The Phone With My Mom” It is euphoric melody, that stayed with us long after the music faded . We also loved the energy on , “Any Day Now “

If we had to pick a favorite track, ( which is almost impossible to do) we would absolutely pick, “You Could Break My Heart “ it is Maddie, at her absolute best .

Originally from Toronto and now based in New York City, Maddie discovered her passion for songwriting at just 12 years old, using music as a tool to navigate her anxieties and give voice to her innermost thoughts. She grew up inspired by the individuality and unfiltered honesty of artists like Nelly Furtado, Lana Del Rey, and Avril Lavigne, laying the foundation for her own distinctive sound. Since her 2021 debut, Maddie has released two EPs, MISS REGENT and Girl of Your Dreams, and has earned recognition from tastemakers like Atwood Magazine and EARMILK.

“On The Phone With My Mom “, from the divine, Maddie Regent, is a debut album, you can’t afford to miss.
