TIPA Announces Debut Album and Releases New Single “You”

Singer TIPA has released her latest song “You,” along with an accompanying music video. This single serves as a preview of TIPA’s debut album Esība, set to be released on June 18.

“You,” like TIPA’s other songs, is an open and personal story: “It represents the irony of waking up after having experienced the full spectrum of emotions, remembering your self-worth, and wanting to smile at the situation you're in. The song is genuine at its core—it expresses exactly what you feel and want, calling things by their true name and without fear. A little tender, a little mischievous,” says the singer.

The music video for the new single was created in collaboration with director and producer Elizabete Balode and cinematographer Kārlis Bergs. The director shares that both the song and the video are based on a simple, direct, yet beautiful idea: “I believe we’ve all been in such situations to some extent, so I tried to capture that visually through the video—something powerfully fragile with a big smile.”

The upcoming album Esība will feature songs written over a period of five years, with the artist sharing her personal experiences and reflections. Although the creative journey has been relatively long, TIPA reveals that through both bright and challenging moments, she has consistently sought beauty, peace, and authenticity in her music—which ultimately shapes the entire story. She also emphasizes that one is never truly alone on their journey, which is why the album includes collaborations with other Latvian musicians.

With the release of Esība, TIPA will also embark on a concert tour across Latvia. The first concert is scheduled for June 20 in “Pegaza Pagalms,” in Liepāja—her hometown.

TIPA has been active in music for several years, but gained broader recognition following her standout appearance on season 5 of the TV show X Faktors, where she finished in 4th place. In addition to her solo career, TIPA also contributes to other musicians' work. In her latest collaboration, her vocals and cello can be heard on rapper Ods' album Tavai zināšanai man viss labi.
