Nina Nesbitt - Mountain Music - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

Nina Nesbitt is set to take her continuing rising star status to the next level with the news that she will her eagerly anticipated new album 'Älskar'.Made in the show of the introspection, loss and fear of lockdown, 'Älskar' celebrates life in all of it's complexities as well as love in every form imaginable. As we've heard from it's previous singles 'Dinner Table' and 'When You Lose Someone', 'Älskar' (meaning 'to love' in Swedish, a reflection of Nina's half-Swedish heritage) shimmers with both tender, intimate ballads and huge escapist '80s-tinged bangers that beg for the dancefloor. Nina wrote or co-wrote every song that features on the album, and produced or co-produced many of it's tracks.The new single 'Pressure Makes Diamonds' is one of the album's brightest moments, all refined alt-pop sparkle and alluring effervescent melodies which are capped by Nina's quick-flowing freestyle vocal. It's sound is immediately catchy and fun, but it expresses a powerful message the stereotypical expectations that so many young women are expected to conform to as they reach their mid-twenties. Nina wrote the song with it's producers Jack & Coke (Charli XCX, Tove Lo) and the Swedish artist SHY Martin. It was then mixed by the award-winning Manon Grandjean (Stormzy, Dave).In addition to the singles, 'Älskar' introduces highlights at every turn. The early landmark moment 'Teenage Chemistry' celebrates Nina's current long-term relationship with beat-driven dreamy elegance and the instantly relatable lyrics. It then journeys through the minimalist ambient pop of 'No Time (For My Life To Suck'), an intimate, acoustic arrangement on 'I Should Be A Bird', and cinematic balladeering with 'Colours of You'. By the time the album closes with the gorgeously glacial title track, it's evident that Nina Nesbitt has created an album that primes her for a much bigger future.

Eco Blue LP. Mountain Music is Nina Nesbitt as fans have never heard her before. Having risen to fame at a young age with her disarming, candid pop - the Scottish musician is now found in an entirely new realm. It is inspired in part by the two years she spent touring the States in support of her second studio album the critically acclaimed Top 40, The Sun Will Come Up, The Seasons Will Change, which has now accrued over a billion streams. These songs are permeated with gorgeous nods to US folk and Americana. It's made all the more extraordinary by the face that, not long ago, Nesbitt was considering quitting music altogether. Produced by Peter Miles and Nesbitt, mixed and mastered by Miles at his stunning studio MiddleFarm in south Devon, and released via her own tag, Apple Tree Records. A playful nod to her 2012 debut EP, TheApple Tree, this marks the start of an exciting new era for Nina Nesbitt. While it might sound strange that Nesbitt was drawn to the music of Appalachia, heard echoing through the vast, verdant mountain ranges of the eastern United States, it makes more sense when you consider how traditional Scottish ballads and hymns are threads in that rich tapestry. Empathy is one of Nesbitt's greatest strengths. We hear it on InchPainkillerInch, a Joni Mitchell-indebted ballad on which her heart breaks for the men who believe they have to suppress their own feelings. One of the album's standout qualities is, perhaps, the dynamic that Nesbitt creates from one song to the next. Where many folk artists might lean into quiet introspection, she craves the full spectrum of emotion - so ensconced around InchPainkillerInch you have the tender InchOn the Run', with it's distant shivers of percussion and crystalline piano, but also InchAngerInch. She's in a nostalgic mood on the rousing InchComing HomeInch, a Springsteen-inspired, driving-with-the-top-down journey
