We love it when we stumble upon completely unknown artists with some truly beautiful music (and videos) – that’s what The Deli is here for! Norwegian artist OKAY KAYA (now based in NYC) hit the ground running earlier this year when she released this truly touching video for single ‘Damn, Gravity’ (produced by Rodaidh McDonald of The xx fame), and, shortly later, toured the US in support of Tobias Jesso Jr. The Scandinavian songwriter has three songs up on her Soundcloud page, all featuring a very sparse, drumless dream folk sound. She’ll be performing at this year’s Northside festival with a show at Cameo opening for Deli favorites Fort Lean and Caveman, tomorrow June 11.
We added this song to The Deli’s playlist of Best mellow songs by emerging NYC artists – check it out!
