Fresh off a year of wins — including Best Music Video at the Toronto International Music Video Festival and sold-out shows in Hollywood— Canadian alt-pop artist TYA (she/they) is entering her most vulnerable era yet.

Backed by RBCxMusic, Headb!tch Distro, & Grrrl Music, TYA’s Mental Health Mixtape is a raw, cinematic confession — the kind that turns panic into poetry and breakdowns into something you can dance to. With biting yet empathetic lyrics and powerhouse vocals, TYA blurs the line between diary entry and performance art.

Her past year saw a 500% jump in streams, headlining queer festivals from NYC to LA, and placements on several Pride Playlists. A mental health advocate first and forever, TYA makes music for anyone who’s ever felt too much — and needed that to mean something.

For fans of Fletcher, Avril Lavigne, and Remi Wolf, TYA is the underground pop poet proving that chaos can sound beautiful.
