Sapphic pop is a term used to describe a particular subgenre of indie music and bedroom pop. The genre typically has female, often femme, singer-songwriters and will often feature lyrical themes such as lesbianorqueer love.[1][2][3][4][5]
The name of the subgenre derives from sapphism.[6]
Phoebe Bridgers, Muna, Tegan and Sara, Clairo, Girl in Red, and King Princess have been cited as examples of the genre.[7][8][9] Some male singers may also be included in the classification, such as Sufjan Stevens and Hozier.[10]
Additionally, some songs have been described as "sapphic anthems". For example, Muna and Phoebe Bridgers' song "Silk Chiffon" and G Flip and mxmtoon's song "Queen".[11]
Meanwhile, artists such as Gemma Laurence have called their music "sapphic folk".[11]
