Toronto-based singer-songwriter Nathalie King is known for her sultry smooth low voice, reminiscent of the true artists of the vintage jazz era and an upper range that is soft and melodic. The music she makes is noted for its cinematic electro pop and trip hop style, while her sound expresses deeply rooted themes like mental health and emotional life experiences.
King is currently working on her new EP PTSD with the plan to release in October 2024. “I’ve been writing songs as a therapeutic means to overcome childhood trauma and depression throughout my life,” she says. “Working in the studio together in Toronto, PTSD has a more electronic and UK sound to it thanks to the contributions of Bristol born producer Joseph Snook.”
New single, “You,” is about the many thick layers that people wear to protect themselves from a harsh world. Underneath all that is the vulnerable soft inner child that just wants to belong, be accepted and loved. The song’s intimacy is achieved through vocals and piano alone, sharing its message without big production.
