ArchipelagoActivist, dancer, and one-woman band, nasimiYu busts out of her 7-year hiatus with a self-produced album that radically explores the life lessons she learned in that time.The album, P O T I O N S, stands apart from anything she’s released before because this was an entirely solo effort.Not only is there immense vulnerability in playing every single sound on the record herself, at home in her solo quarantine. But there is also a deep honesty in the personal themes she explores — secrets, witchcraft, heartbreak, psychedelic medicine, and the unwavering devotion to shining light on one’s innermost voice.After spending 7 years trying to overcome a deeply rooted writing block, she ended up finding her way through it the same way she got into musicmaking in the first place — through dance.“Dance is the only language that I speak fluently. Everything that I write and everything that I communicate in my daily life is just me trying to translate that.”Having been a member of several music projects in New York and New Orleans, from fronting trap-pop duo Baeb Rxxth, to touring as drummer for the experimental Kalbells and punk trio Sharkmuffin, to working as a teaching artist for Carnegie Hall, Simi has saved her most personal deep dives for her solo work.
