Yassy T.

I’m a queer singer-songwriter and poet from Cebu, Philippines. I write gentle pieces about sapphic love and the largeness of life.

Music

I find myself writing songs for each part of myself that I outgrow. I honor the sound and stories that outlive these versions of me.

Musings

I’ve been writing songs since 2018, but my tenderness for poetry goes way back. When I was still in school, I’d pass around notebooks or papers of short stories, prose and poems with my classmates.I snorted the hell out of Nicholas Sparks books. That hopeless romanticism never left my system, so here we are….Under The Clownery Collective, I explore poetry, zine-making, and illustrations alongside my fellow queer artist friends based in MNL-CEB.

spunky penguin is my dreampop experiment-- a sonic detour into my manic headspace.Here, I'm exploring a new sound outside of my gentle, lyric-driven, folk style. My songwriting approach here: a rhythm-forward, synth-laced sound with simpler storytelling.Give Little Heartbreak a listen-- I do hope you'll like it!
