Deconstructing Artifice with May Rio
Manage episode 364790283 series 3371200
For today's episode, I am joined by dream pop songstress and New York underground it-girl May Rio to talk about her upcoming debut album French Bath, emerging from pandemic-induced solitude, and feeling renewed and ready to turn a new leaf. We also discuss her unforgettable experience recording background vocals on The Dare's mega-hit "Girls" and the diversity in underground artistic communities throughout the city.
✨ MORE ABOUT MAY RIO ✨
May Rio is the latest project of pop writer/performer May Sembera, which emerged in 2020 from May experimenting with off-kilter melodies in Ableton while confined to her home studio in New York. Her latest album French Bath is a tapestry of imaginative textures and wry humor about the shallow deceptiveness of glamour and artifice, holding up a mirror to the many different ways we attempt to fill our own voids.
