MORE MUSIC IMMINENT
Catalan-Irish musician and storyteller Núria Graham shares a new song today, “Yes It’s Me, The Goldfish!”—listen here and watch the accompanying visual piece, directed by Marc Cuscó, here. More music from Graham is imminent.
“This song has had many lives already,” Graham says. “It’s a melody and a story that has been in my head for years now, there are many recorded versions in my old voice memos on my phone and computer. One day, while I was at home recording and writing, this phrase came to me: ‘Yes it’s me, the goldfish!’ and then everything fell into place on its own. It made a lot of sense in the album’s story, which has different narrators and fables telling the same event. The Goldfish is the one watching from the fishbowl, and as he watches through the glass, he realizes he already has all the answers, kind of like a witch’s crystal ball. One day I asked my partner Malcus to record a beat to play something on top of, and then the whole song just presented itself”
Next week, Graham will hit the road, with a special show in her hometown of Vic, Spain at Mercat de la Música Viva followed by a run of U.S. dates including Primavera Sound Los Angeles and shows in Portland, Seattle and San Francisco supporting MARO. After the U.S. run, Graham will tour Europe with stops in Spain, Switzerland, Germany, Denmark and more—see full routing below and get tickets here.
