On The Rise: Nancy

After surfacing online with an unknown identity Nancy has been described as a musical auteur, a provocateur, a surrealist, both male and female, a mysterious necromancer, in the same sentence both classy and trashy, weird and wonderful, Sgt Peppers for degenerates.

Raised in conservative North East England, Nancy acted in ways that seemed out-of the-ordinary - combined with abnormal physical features, “Nancy” was both a punchline and label throughout the songwriter’s formative years.

Beginning as a DIY form of escapism, a pop music obsession began. It’s these past lives and vivid influences that are reimagined and regurgitated to create a cocktail of lo-fo cabaret sass contorted with art-dream-pop deformities - an invitation to a fantasy world to get lost in.

In parts it's Doom Glam and in other parts straight up dancefloor pop music and rock n roll. It sounds like a compilation album where every song is killer. For fans of Fat White Family, Abba, The Mary Chain and Mac DeMarco. You will instantly fall in love with each track and be amazed at the diversity.
