Singer, songwriter and guitarist Towa Bird has shared 'Deep Blue,' a reflective new standalone single that finds the rising rock artist exploring the enduring bond she shares with her sister, Cat. Released via Interscope Records following Bird's recent Gentleman Tour, the track trades none of her signature edge, but makes space for a gentler, emotionally direct kind of intensity.
Bird introduced 'Deep Blue' during her headline tour, where it quickly earned a warm response from audiences. Written by Bird alongside Patrick Wimberly and Donna Missal, and produced by Wimberly, the song centers on the closeness that can remain intact across distance, change and life's defining moments.
'Deep Blue' is a song about my sister Cat. It is about our bond, seeing each other through major life events and feeling emotionally tethered no matter the distance, Bird says.
The accompanying visual extends that personal focus. Directed by Bird, the video places the artist and her sister at its center, creating a simple, touching companion to a song built around family connection and mutual understanding.
'Deep Blue' follows Gentleman, Bird's acclaimed second album. The project reimagines the old-world archetype in its title as an expression of queer confidence and romance, while broadening the sound Bird introduced on her debut, American Hero. Her blend of sharp guitar work, pop instinct and candid songwriting has made her one of modern rock's most distinctive young voices.
Bird's ascent has been marked by major touring opportunities, including North American and European dates with Reneé Rapp and a support slot on Billie Eilish's HIT ME HARD AND SOFT: THE TOUR. The half-Filipino, half-English artist, who grew up between Thailand and London, began playing guitar at 12 and has since brought that early love of classic guitar bands into a sound that feels wholly her own.
With 'Deep Blue,' Bird offers an intimate next chapter, one rooted in the people who have shaped her long before the growing crowds, critical praise and global stages.
