Nérija Stands Apart, According To Pitchfork

Pitchfork explains that, while “loud and energetic septet Nérija is just the latest formidable voice to emerge from London’s jazz scene…the 10 original compositions on Blume stand apart.

It’s going for NACC Radio 200 and Jazz debuts next week; read all about it in Pitchfork here.
