FLYING OUT'S #13 ALBUM OF 2024:
London singer songwriter Nilüfer Yanya blew us away My Method Actor. Blending elements of indie rock, art pop, and soul, with touches of alternative R&B and experimental rock, it’s a genre bending masterpiece. Compared in the same single breath to Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Breeders, and King Krule, you should at the very least be curious, if not downright excited!
Nilüfer Yanya formally announces her new album My Method Actor. The news arrives alongside the release of her new single, the near-title track “Method Actor,” and follows her recent single “Like I Say (I runaway),” which the New York Times described as, “reveling in contrasting textures” and The FADER called, “a jolting return.” Putting herself in an unnamed character’s shoes, “Method Actor” portrays a mini-life story in under four minutes. The accompanying visualiser was shot in an old hotel in Benidorm, Spain and is a one take video capturing Nilüfer sitting down to share the song's story.
