Nilfer Yanya - PAINLESS

Released 4th March 2022.

Mercurial London artist Nilfer Yanya announces her hugely anticipated second album, PAINLESS, for release via ATO Records.

PAINLESS is the follow-up to Nilfer Yanyas renowned 2019 debut album, MissUniverse, which fully established her as a singular artist and a distinctive voice that simply has to be heard.

The critically acclaimed Miss Universe - a widescreen concept record that took a tongue-in-cheek swipe at the most self-involved corners of the health and wellness industry - was followed last year by the three song EP Feeling Lucky?, which further explored Yanyas fascination with 90s alt-rock melodies and drew on themes of resentment, her fear of flying, and the concept of luck. Pitchfork summed up Feeling Lucky? and her now peerless songwriting aptitude best: Nilfer Yanyas melodies have a pull so strong they almost necessitate their own law of physics.

Yanya also re-released her early EPs on vinyl
