Norm

Description

Andy Shauf returns in full force with the sublime "Norm"! Andy Shauf's songs unfold like short fictions: they are densely populated with colorful characters and rich emotional depth. On his new studio album, "Norm," Andy Shauf's songs are decidedly more oblique, hinting at sinister events and dark motivations. The result: a captivating collection of seductive melodies and lyrics. Levity-infused, synthesizer-laden atmospheres drive Shauf's narrative on "Norm," mixed by Neal Pogue (Tyler, the Creator). In 2016, "The Party" catapulted Andy Shauf to indie notoriety, followed by "The Neon Skyline" in 2020, which saw Andy Shauf perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and CBS This Morning: Saturday, earn a Polaris Prize nomination, and appear on several best-of lists, including a spot on Barack Obama's playlist and praise from Pitchfork, The Atlantic, Esquire, Stereogum, and more.
