Having emerged from scenes spanning Providence, Oakland, Berlin and New York, location means little in relation to the work of James K. Her travels have allowed her to absorb each city's distinctive creative energy and inuences. Each of her stints in various cities has contributed to the New York native's current sound, which she has quietly honed in on creating aesthetic that is wholly her own. Though she spent many formative years in the noise and DIY scenes in Providence and Oakland her time in Berlin and New York has allowed her to soak up both city's vibrant club scenes.Vogue remarks “she’s the sort of art-pop musician never content with a single creative outlet, and someone who, despite the fact that you’ve never heard of her, is shockingly prolic”James K is making music to experiment and the four videos for tracks from this album reect the same reaching, extracting feeling of that search. Images play around, images that look and give o sensation. That process is James K's way of abstracting sounds, in the lead up to her debut LP in 2015.
