Maple Glider has announced her anticipated sophomore album, “I Get Into Trouble”, This announcement is accompanied by the release of “Dinah” alongisde a new music video. This is the second single from the record, following “Don’t Kiss Me” released earlier this year.
On “Dinah,” Maple Glider pulls a wickedly clever bait-and-switch: fully embracing the pop side of her trademark psych-folk like never before, but pairing it with lyrics that turn the song into what she considers the scariest – and perhaps angriest – thing she’s ever released. The titular “Dinah” refers to the bible story ‘Dinah Gets Into Trouble,’ where a young woman is victim-blamed for being sexually assaulted. In the song, Maple Glider expertly dissects the double standards within her own experience growing up in Christianity; and the accusations leveled at “non-believers” whilst the church itself was not a safe space.
On the track, Tori says: “For me, “Dinah” is the scariest thing I’ve ever put out. It’s probably the most pop feeling song I’ve released, but it’s really quite an angry song. I have felt incredibly disturbed and frustrated and sad in the process of writing and putting it together.”
