Background

After leaving in Top 15 in season eleven of American Idol, Jennifer Hirsh re-evaluated her music and sound. She draws inspiration from electronic dance music such as Grimes and James Blake. She later contacted her high school friend and producer, Scott Michael Smith. Together, Smith mixed Hirsh's soul-filled vocals, modern rhythms, giving rise to Hirsh's alter ego, Monogem.[1]

Monogem announced a limited edition bone white vinyl for her debut extended play through Turntable Kitchen, a subscription service.[2] The second single, "Wait and See", was placed on Top 13 for BuzzFeed’s Perfect Pop Songs from 2015.[3]
