TV Nomad delivers a gem with her debut project "AM : PM"
Introducing the artist and the fantastic new EP to the world
As "Spooky Type", the first song off of TV Nomad's debut project gets started, we're thrusted into an unconventional sonic experience that she has carefully crafted. The beat builds, and her vocals come in only after the tone is set and the timing is just right. This willingness to be patient is a consistent theme with her, and it shows in her art. “This project has been a long time coming,” she says. “I’ve spent the past couple of years in a phase of incubation; being intensely introspective, meeting the right producer, creating project after project but always holding off on releasing until I felt like the time and the music was right. I’m excited to finally wade in.” Her new EP "AM : PM" is upon us, and it's a bold intro to the life of a 22-year-old black queer artist.
“I’ve spent the past couple of years in a phase of incubation; being intensely introspective, meeting the right producer, creating project after project but always holding off on releasing until I felt like the time and the music was right."
With her time split between her hometown of San Francisco and Brooklyn NYC, TV Nomad pulls inspiration from everywhere, blending distinctive lyrics and an intricate rhythmic approach to create a sound of her own. This sound is on display in Sangria, a velvety smooth ode to a love that is cleverly compared to the drink. Mamadou, the lone feature on the tape does not disappoint, and the juxtaposition of the two vocal styles along with a strong chorus by TV Nomad makes it our favorite part of the project.In the final piece "T-Break", TV Nomad is at her most vulnerable, toiling with insecurities, and assessing her mind state as a whole. One lyric, "I'd rather find my way here together" stuck with us. TV Nomad is a singer, songwriter, bassist and producer, but most of all she's a young woman making sense of the world and her place in it. In her new EP, she invites us along for that voyage, and the journey is worth every second.Listen to the project here!
