Emerging Sunshine Coast singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, Nuraini is releasing her single titled Just A Little which is going to be out Monday 2 December 2024 on all online streaming platforms.
“A delightfully sweet number that’ll make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside!”
– Sara Glaidous (Triple J)
Nuraini has already released three singles: Feels (2021),Sun Kiss (2021) and Oh Mother (2022) with around 120,000 streams collectively for all three singles. She has just finished recording a five track EP at Lev Productions studio in Mullumbimby with Ari Levy. The first single from this EP, called Just A Little is due to be released next month with the other songs to be released as singles in the coming months next year.
“Nuraini’s latest track, Just A Little is a masterful blend of sensuality and groove, weaving warm rhythms and soulful sophistication into an intimate, uplifting musical experience”
– Larissa Mahony (Locals In The Loop).
“I had so much fun working with Nuraini on this EP and I’m really proud with what we’ve created. We really tried to push our creative boundaries and come up with something a little different. Nuraini is an amazing songwriter and these new tracks are fire!”
– Ari Levy (Lev Productions studio, Mullumbimby).
Nuraini says “ The first single Just A Little off my new EP was originally a few song ideas mixed together. In hindsight, they all worked together to tell a story of two potential lovers meeting but wanting to take things slow, although the lyrics are somewhat elusive and could be interpreted in many ways by the listener. The second verse was the first ‘bones’ of the song, which I wrote while I was living in Thailand. When I tried to expand on the song, I mentally took myself back to Thailand and the feelings that evoked, in order to write the first verse. The chorus was a bit random initially, I started playing with the words ’sip’ and ‘little bit’, then just had fun with it and played around until it fitted in. The lyrics in the bridge were initially filler words until I found something better, but I never did! I liked the rhythm of the lyrics and they seemed to fit so I left them. The song probably took a few years to come together as one. Then Ari Levy who produced the track helped bring it to life in the studio. He also plays lead guitar and keys on this track. Arne Utiger is an amazing bass guitarist from Sydney who plays bass on all the tracks on this EP”
Nuraini effortlessly weaves stories into soulful music and groove based rhythms. Influenced by genres spanning neo-soul, rnb, funk, hip hop and reggae, her music is a captivating and honest reflection of her diversity as an artist. Some of her favourite artists and inspirations include Mereba, Cleo Sol, Matt Corby, Lauryn Hill and Pip Millet to name a few.
When playing solo, her looping skills add another dimension to her live performances, but lately she has been hitting the stage with her band, bringing a fuller and more playful energy to her shows.
Nuraini’s sound is fresh and full of vibe, and is a promising taste of what’s to come. Check her music out as it is something a little different. Also, make sure to get along and watch this great up and coming act live either solo or with her band around South East Queensland in the coming months. Follow her on Facebook and Instagram to find out when she is playing next and releasing more music from this EP.
Just A Little is for fans who also like Olivia Dean, Felivand, Cleo Sol and Ruby Jackson.
Nuraini will be launching Just A Little with her band at a house gig on Friday 13 December 2024 at Kiamba, inland of Yandina.
