Nina Ryser

Nina Ryser is a Philadelphia-based musician and composer. Her music has always inhabited its own world; a singular and cohesive collection of Keyboard-centric home recordings that marry her undeniable pop sensibilities with a truly bizarre dreamlike aesthetic. With a solo career spanning 7 releases as well as her work in the highly influential art-punk trio <a href="spotify:artist:3P9RPqVK0w0CN5SqlQ6j0f" data-name="Palberta">Palberta</a>, Nina&#39;s artistic voice has been a staple in the American underground for over a decade, her distinctive and consistent sound earning a cult following. Her latest effort Water Giants signifies a departure in both sound and artistic practice - her first solo release recorded outside of her home studio, with a myriad of first time collaborators, it&#39;s Nina&#39;s most pristine and expansive experimental pop offering to date, centering Nina as a dynamic performer and lyricist without foregoing the surreal qualities of her previous work. Nina&#39;s contemporary classical work, featured in film scores and performed by renowned ensembles such as the American Symphony Orchestra, serves to influence and inform her pop music creations, all held together in a taut, designful balance.
