CMU Approved
Approved: Nala
By Andy Malt | Published on Tuesday 5 June 2018
Holly Readman released her first EP as Nala late last year, showcasing a bold, if rough-edged, electronic sound, which she terms ‘sad dance’. Now she’s back with new single ‘Look At Me’, which, as the title suggests, is an even more confident step out into the world.
The months between releases have clearly been well spent. Her production on the new single is more refined than on earlier tracks, and she’s brought her vocals out from beneath a heavy layer of effects. On ‘Look At Me’ she gives herself more space to explore her sound and songwriting, and it works to great effect.
Live dates are cropping up with increasing regularity, so keep an eye out. Her next currently scheduled show is at The Cumberland Arms in Leeds as part of the Eastern Electrics festival on 20 Jul.
