November Ultra

Former singer and songwriter of Parisian-based indie band Agua Roja who flowed into the indie music scene with their first song "Summer Ends »back in 2013, November Ultra has often been praised for her deep and warm voice. After releasing two EPs, the band splits in 2018. As an hommage to Frank Ocean’s mixtape "Nostalgia, Ultra", November becomes November Ultra and starts exploring solo. 

 

During those two years, she divides her time between recording studios and her DIY bedroom- studio, working for others as a topliner/songwriter (Jaden Smith, Claire Laffut, Terrenoire, Kungs, Anna Majidson, Jasmïn, Grant, Maja Francis, Barbara Pravi...) while recording, exploring and producing her own songs on Ableton. 

As practice, she produces reworks of songs she covers and improvises on - her "Secret Tapes"- that she then publishes on instagram IGTV and Youtube to familiarise her audience with the different sounds and intricacies of her own music. 

 

Her future debut album sounds like a journey through her DNA, 11 songs that showcase the musical roots of an artist who grew up listening to folk music, r&b and with a very obsessive Spanish grand-father who introduced her to his adoration for 60’s musicals and Spanish copla. 

 

Her two first singles, the soothing DIY lullaby "Soft & Tender" and the sweet and sour "Miel" gives us a little taste of what is to come : warm, comforting and cinematographic bedroom pop.
