Leanne Hoffman performs a tightrope walk between the sensual immediacy of pop music and poetry’s revelatory nuance on her latest single Portuguese Tarts. Using the swirling melodies and glitzed-up production of Top 40, The Nova Scotia-based multidisciplinary artist builds tension between soundscapes primed for pure pleasure and lyrics that address the interconnected relationship between desire and despair. The song is a marked departure from her lush 2019 debut What Remains. Produced by award-winning producer Erin Costelo and Hoffman herself, Portuguese Tarts deconstructs poetry and pop music, rebuilding the pieces into a listening experience even richer than the sum of its parts.
