About Half Waif ☄ Zula ☄ What Moon Things ☄ Thelma
Half Waif is the solo project of Nandi Rose Plunkett, who lives in Brooklyn NY.
In the home of her Indian mother and Irish/American father, Nandi grew up listening to a mix of Joni Mitchell, Tori Amos, Celtic songstress Loreena McKennitt, and traditional Indian bhajans. In college, she studied classical singing and became enamored with the works of Olivier Messiaen and Claude Debussy. A lover of synthesizers and pop tunes, her resulting work as Half Waif features richly layered compositions of various origins, at once dark and dreamy.
Half Waif's first EP, Future Joys, was released in May 2013. She recorded her debut full-length album KOTEKAN with producer Devin Greenwood in Brooklyn and released it in July 2014. The album--a kaleidoscopic blend of contemporary classical music and experimental pop--is now available on iTunes and Bandcamp.
Zula is a New York-based psych pop outfit led by cousins Henry and Nate Terepka. On their debut album, This Hopeful, listeners were introduced to Zula's hypnotic and rhythmic brand of pop, which has been called "Pointillistic...with a mainspring of Minimalism" by The New York Times. Taking inspiration from '90s UK indie-dance, krautrock and funk, they create something raw and spontaneous, yet meticulously detailed. The four-piece, featuring Noga Shefi on bass and Pablo Eluchans on drums, has built a reputation for energetic performances and constantly pushing their heavily rhythmic sound. Expect Zula's sophomore LP in early 2016.
