London singer songwriter Nilüfer Yanya blew us away with her last album Painless, and we're beyond gagged to hear there's a new one on the way. My Method Actor is set to land on Ninja Tune this September, written and recorded alongside creative partner Wilma Archer. With a style that's been compared in the same single breath to such broad ranging wonders as Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Breeders, and King Krule, you should at very least be curious, if not downright ecstatic! - Flying Out
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.
