Nolita

Keren Ann

A bilingual masterpiece of nocturnal chamber pop. Hushed, elegant, and deeply lonely, it captures the specific melancholy of being a stranger in New York City.

A sophisticated, bilingual meditation on urban isolation and the beauty of late-night melancholy.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition into the sprawling seven-minute title track where the arrangement expands into a cinematic, hazy dreamscape.
The haunting spoken word intro of 'Song of Alice' that feels like a ghost story told in a hotel hallway.
The way the acoustic guitar in 'Que n’ai-je ?' anchors her breathy vocal delivery with a rhythmic, almost clock-like precision.
