The problem is that you've defined your "name" column as being an array
of varchar values. That's not what you're providing.
=> CREATE TABLE mp3s (track_name text[]);
CREATE TABLE
=> INSERT INTO mp3s (track_name) VALUES ( '{"first item", "second item"}' );
INSERT 0 1
See the manual: data-types, arrays for more details.
