Artist Bio
Since 2000, Hollywood-born, New York-based singer-songwriter Nina Nastasia has been making astonishing albums that have cut listeners to the quick, leaving their bones exposed, dragging their hearts away. She has swept up some high-profile fans in the process: six sessions were recorded for John Peel, and legendary producer Steve Albini has worked with her closely throughout the last decade, calling her first album, Dogs, “one of my favourites… of the couple of thousand records I’ve been involved with”.
New album Outlaster is Nastasia’s sixth LP, following 2007’s You Follow Me, an experimental album fashioned with Dirty Three drummer Jim White (guest musician of choice for acts such as Nick Cave, Will Oldham, PJ Harvey etc). This is a more old-fashioned record, full of tangible tenderness and yearning strings, but there is imminent danger as it moves along languidly. Nastasia’s beautiful voice is at the heart of this, being easy to love and full of natural soul, but also handling every syllable with a quick-smart economy that teems with strength and authority. Again produced by Albini and released thru Fat Cat / Touch + Go Records, Outlaster features other musical input from Tortoise’s Jeff Parker and T-Bone Burnett collaborator Jay Bellerose.
