For HUSHPUPPY, Brecher writes and records all of the music herself from her apartment in Manhattan. Although she has been drumming since she was 10, she began writing songs when she was even younger. In 2016, she began posting short pop songs centered on gay love and relationships under the name HUSHPUPPY to her Bandcamp page and has been releasing music under that name since. Brecher says, “With my music, I want to make people feel good, and I want them to know they are not alone when they don’t.”
