Robyn M Taps Into 90s Fuzz Pedals on Overmorrow
The singer-songwriter teams up with her parents to track a heavy, nostalgic slice of alt-rock straight from home.
By Markus ·
Alternative rock songwriter Robyn M has spent years gigging local bars with her family, quietly racking up 14 home-recorded releases along the way. Her track 'Overmorrow', tracked in a bedroom setup using Fender Studio Pro 8, serves as an intentional love letter to 90s guitar records. Co-produced with her parents, who originally connected through their shared music taste back in that decade, the project works like a bridge between the records they came up on and her own current reality.
Running at 92 BPM, the song zeroes in on the ache of long-distance separation and waiting out the days. To get the sound right, the family leaned into the stacked guitar layers heard on The Smashing Pumpkins' Siamese Dream, chasing that specific Big Muff saturation alongside nods to Weezer's 'Only in Dreams' and Superdrag's 'Nothing Good Is Real':
'I hope we're looking at the same stars
Then maybe to the sky we aren't so far apart
I'll see you overmorrow
I'll miss you through today and tomorrow'
Instead of chasing a squeaky-clean modern mix, Robyn M lets the thick distortion carry the emotional weight, turning an old family connection into a gritty, honest piece of alternative rock.
