The Wine Cellar: Nicole Andrews, Lilo Peaks and Valere
Live at The Wine Cellar: Nicole Andrews, Lilo Peaks and Valere
Three unique singer-songwriters and synth wielding female performers hit the stage at The Wine Cellar in Auckland for one night only.
The line up includes:
Wellington indie
pianist and synth slayer, Nicole Andrews, whose style is
reminiscent of Tori Amos and PJ Harvey Her debut album, I
n the Shallows was described by T he Listener
Magazine as “all rolling piano and rich, epically
angst-ridden vocals.”
Auckland based electronic singer-songwriter, Valere, whose sounds bring an electronic mix of soul and synth. Showcasing a palate of warm new wave sounds, pop melodies and R&B beats, Valere sends listeners into a “melacholic daze” [Radio Republic review].
Lilo Peaks, whose synth-pop style blends acoustic and electronic elements to create a gritty and explorative sound. The Auckland based artist explores concepts of intimacy in a time where computer screens keep the world at arm’s length, to what it is to be half-loved, to the panicked fear of failure.
Reviews:
Nicole An
drews - Listener Magazine album
review:
Quote:
“It’s
tough to shift the Tori Amos comparisons for
Portland-raised, now Wellington based Nicole Andrews - all
rolling piano and rich, epically angst-ridden vocals. The
powerful string-backed Pixelated Roses, with its anger,
ashes and warning to “run and hide,” is a highlight, but
for those who like their femininity fierce and fearless the
pace doesn’t drop until Andrews calls Time at the
end.”
Valere - Radio Republic
review:
Quote:
“[...]
sends listeners into a melancholic daze [...] a potent sound
that can easily warrant old and
new fans’
attention.”
Lilo Peaks - Gold Flake Paint
review:
Quote:
“Combining
sparse, atmospheric synth sounds with a vocal that’s
almost like overhearing someone singing in the shower, the
experimental elements work together well, especially when
the glitchy beats and somewhat unexpected brass comes in
about halfway through. After such a languid, downtempo
beginning this powerful new melody lifts the song and brings
it to a memorable conclusion.”
