“As a child you want to know everything going on around you. You're like a human sponge. With me music was second nature in my life…”
Nenna Yvonne
Nenna Yvonne’s musical inspiration is a product of the same approach to absorbing the influences around her as she mentions of her childhood.
“I watch old movies, parodies and short skits and I look at the creative content and how I translate that into another form of creative art”.
This attitude is perfectly illustrated in Nenna Yvonne’s forthcoming single ‘Go Around’. A pulsating, floor-filling statement of intent of what’s to come in the months ahead.
Her inescapable hooks are drenched in danceable beats, trippy soundscapes and her own urban spin on Electropop. Her ambition to succeed is clear from the off. Somehow, aged 19, Nenna convinced her mother into loaning her the money to build her own home studio and locked herself in there for the next 3 years, while still attending school, to develop her style and her technical ability.
Nenna says that her songs have a way of finding her. “The songs will come in forms of poetry, conversation, letters and novels. The best part is that there is no wrong or right way to create. †You have a clean slate, a blank canvas and you start to use all your natural instincts to find yourself in the music. It should always flow naturally and freely..”
With a love for girls groups as seemingly different as "The Supremes" and "the Donnas" her influences are both diverse and yet distinctively ‘Nenna Yvonne’ carrying a strong heritage of female ambition and drive. “Sometimes people have this misconception that music is hidden when it never actually is. †You shoudn’t have to dig too deep to find a good song” and ‘Go Around’ is the perfect example of this very sentiment.
