Singer/songwriter/performer Teddi Gold admits life can be rough, and sometimes it’s easy to feel trapped or smaller than we really are. Ultimately, her mission is to help you shake those unsettling feelings off, and her new single “Pineapple Piñata” is a new opportunity to do so!
Growing up in Seattle, Teddi Gold loved dressing up in different costumes and playing the piano. It was hardly a surprise that Teddi enjoyed performing at home. Her great grandparents were skilled entertainers, and looking back upon the legacy they left served up huge doses of motivation for Teddi. After moving with her family to the U.S. Virgin Islands at nine years old, Teddi’s family dynamic started getting a little rocky. Her parents ended up splitting, and she watched them face a new set of challenges. However, Teddi’s creative side is what kept her going all along.
Teddi’s first single “Video Games” was launched into the world back in 2019, and she’s had quite an exciting journey since then! Her single “Boom Boom” can be heard in an official Old Navy commercial. Just a few months after its release, Teddi teamed up with Instagram/Facebook for their 2020 ‘Register To Vote’ campaign. Her single “Wink Wink” was the official song for the campaign, and was placed in the story function for all Instagram users across America. Not to mention, she’s also sold out venues all over LA, including the famed Peppermint Club.
Surely, Teddi has made her share of huge moves over the past year. With the release of “Pineapple Piñata,” it’s time for you to make your very own! It’s a song meant to have you leave all your stress and worries on the dance floor. When Teddi was in the process of creating the song, she went to Party City and bought a ton of piñatas to smash with her friends.
(If you’re in need of releasing any energy built up inside of you, tearing up some piñatas seems like a pretty cool idea. Or, you know, you could also turn on this song!)
“Pineapple Piñata” will be featured on Teddi’s upcoming EP Vol. 2, out on October 7th. Teddi says, “We are living in pretty dark times and I find that movement and dance help me with my own anxiety and depression and my hope is that it helps others too.”
Well, get to it! Listen to “Pineapple Piñata” below, and say hi to Teddi Gold on Instagram @teddigold and Twitter @teddi_gold.
