Portland, Oregon singer/songwriter Nick Jaina is releasing A Bird In The Opera House in April on Hush Records, also home to Laura Gibson and Loch Lomond. He is an art-folk troubadour who has played in (and busked outside of) clubs across the US and beyond. His new record is a carefully crafted studio album with lush orchestration and amazing melodies. Jaina has west coast tour dates booked for the release of the album with more dates to come.
Sample “Sleep Child,” a lively and upbeat number saturated with hand claps and tribal beats. It rushes forward at a surprising pace, grabbing the attention of listeners and forcing them to move along with his sound.
Look for A Bird In The Opera House out April 13th.
