OKAY KAYA DAMN, GRAVITY

Norway really is the gift that keeps on giving this year. With diminutive pop powerhouse Emilie Nicolas and Katy Perry's favourite teenage talent AURORA already making waves outside of Scandinavia, it's Oslo-raised New Yorker OKAY KAYA's turn to showcase her homeland's vast pool of vocal talent. KAYA's debut 'Damn, Gravity' comes to us today; produced by The xx and Sampha maestro Rodaidh McDonald, it's a slow-burning sliver of nighttime-pop ebbing and flowing with countrified slide guitars, atmospheric drums and lissome cooing. Catch her on tour with crooner-of-the-moment Tobias Jesso Jr soon - DC
