Michael Nau returns with his new album, Some Twist, on Full Time Hobby. Some Twist is the
follow up to 2016’s Mowing and its announcement comes amidst a flurry of recent activity.
Two weeks ago, Nau debuted songs from Some Twist on KCRW’s Morning Becomes
Eclectic and headlined two sold out shows on back-to-back nights in Los Angeles. He has
received extensive BBC radio play and been selected as a “6 Music Recommends” pick. Oneoff
single “Love Survive” cracked the top 50 on Spotify’s Global Viral Chart and Elton John
has played Nau on his Beats1 show.
The first single from Some Twist is “Good Thing”. Bright piano and fingerpicked guitar weave
together throughout the song with a chorus that swells with feedback fuzz and crashing
percussion. Nau’s ever-present sense of humor, one of the hallmarks of his songwriting, gives
the song a wry sense of purpose amidst its reflection.
