Billianne Announces Debut Album "MODES OF TRANSPORTATION"; Releases Single "BABY BLUE"

Today, Canadian singer-songwriter Billianne announces the release of her debut album "Modes of Transportation", which arrives August 15 via The Orchard. Billianne’s transcendent, rich voice, which Rolling Stone called "effortless, unforgettable” and “like a young Adele,” is front and center across the 10 original songs. Lacing melancholic daydreams and romantic voyeurism with an eagerness to overflow into the big city, on "Modes of Transportation", Billianne meditates on the different ways you can arrive at being yourself.

"Modes of Transportation" was written and produced by Billianne, Nick Ferraro and Duncan Hood; its album announcement is accompanied by “Baby Blue,” a danceable breakup anthem with infectious stacked harmonies.

Billianne says, “This song, like my last pop song, is about longing but also about realizing how you did nothing wrong in a relationship, and did nothing but try to be there, but they just couldn't reciprocate. The taunting lines ‘I’ll be looking back just to study it baby, you’ll be looking back like whoopsie daisy’ are a light-hearted way of saying ‘you’re gonna look back and realize you messed all this up.’ I also enjoyed getting ‘was gonna be your west-end girl’ in there because I hope to one day be a west-end girl living in Toronto. Since I’ve still yet to be in a relationship, this is me predicting my future break-up, living in the west end, and riding the subway, all wrapped up in a story called ‘Baby Blue’.”

“Baby Blue” follows “Future Emma” and “Enough,” the latter of which Billianne performed on The Kelly Clarkson show in March. Since 2021, she has amassed 100 million streams globally, made her television debut on The Today Show, performing single “Daydream,” and released single “Crush” that broke through the Top 10 at Canadian Top 40 Radio.
