‘Touch Grass’ is the new single from rising Sydney pop artist Salty. Written and recorded in under six hours alongside collaborators Chelsea Warner and Cyrus Villanueva, this one is for fans of Charli xcx, Zara Larsson and Horsegirl.
A shimmering pop release, ‘Touch Grass’ explores the push and pull between the addictive nature of social media and the quiet disconnection it can create.
“Touch Grass is a self-aware pop anthem about confronting my addiction to my phone and social media, and the quiet tension between living life and performing it online,” Salty explains.
“It captures the moment I realised I was prioritising curated, post-able achievements over genuine, present experiences - and the decision to step outside, reconnect and actually be in my life. Some days I am a slave to the algorithm, but it’s in the moments where I practise that self-control I actually feel the most myself.”
The song is accompanied by a vibrant music video directed by Bianca Georgievska and featuring choreography by Zara Dimmock. Check it out below.

‘Touch Grass’ also arrives on the day Salty joins Adelaide’s own Peach PRC for her national tour, performing on stages across the country throughout the rest of March.
