Queera Nightly and the doo wop art punk diorama of "The Girl Who Fell" (Official Video)

 








"she has some things to learn..."


Queera Nightly’s new single “The Girl Who Fell” tells the tale of their life set to garage dream pop instrumentation with a theatrical twist. Queera’s debut album of the same name is set for release this Spring, a phantasmic music memoir which we’re excited to delve into. Queera grew up in a household which was strictly religious, and felt pressure to hide who they really were, and the track poetically illustrates this oftentimes painful, formative and heartbreaking experience and the performative nature of life. Today, Nightly is in Oakland flourishing as an artist, drag performer and musician feeling the sweet serenity of being their truest self. The lyricism explores life, love, dreams and mysterious secrets kept, spun with smoothly expressive vocals and deep noir tinged soundscapes. Listen to “The Girl Who Fell,” and put the album on your list of what to listen to this year, out this Spring from OIM Records. Hopefully these tracks inspire and empower you to get out of your box and summon your divine creativity and passions, like Queera Nightly has.

“I’ve worn different masks throughout my life: the devoted follower, the politician, the wayward soul. At times I felt more at ease behind a mask, safe from people’s judgment of who I really was. I thought that that would keep me safe, but it only made me feel more and more alone. I felt confined to a box of who I could be. And once I left that box I never could go back.
