ORDER A WATER GIANTS RECORD

“Nina Ryser’s music has always inhabited its own world; a singular and cohesive collection of Keyboard-centric home recordings that marry her undeniable pop sensibilities with a truly bizarre dreamlike aesthetic. With a solo career spanning 7 releases as well as her work in the highly influential art-punk trio Palberta, Nina's artistic voice has been a staple in the American underground for over a decade, her distinctive and consistent sound earning a cult following. Her latest effort Water Giants signifies a departure in both sound and artistic practice - her first solo release recorded outside of her home studio, with a myriad of first time collaborators, it's Nina's most pristine and expansive experimental pop offering to date, centering Nina as a dynamic performer and lyricist without foregoing the surreal qualities of her previous work.” - Charlie Dore-Young
