Bio
James Nisky quietly curates a small collection of adventurously inspired songs. With an overt focus on non-cliche, imaginative lyrical content, his words-and-music format is consistently lauded for its sense of poetry and inventive whimsical lyricism.
A veteran of the super-hip indie club scenes of San Francisco and Los Angeles, his level of activity alternates between intense periods of commercial recording and live performances followed by subdued lulls of creative rejuvenation. He spurns constant and blatant self-promotion in favor of unpredictability, often announcing short-notice club dates at places like the (now-defunct) Spaceland or The Mint in Los Angeles.
In a universe saturated with the over-exposure of cliche-based derivative-driven music, James places tremendous value on limiting his output to works of a specific caliber which contain qualities that are just the opposite. His work is featured on Indiemono's influential Best of Alternative 2017 Spotify playlist with over 30,000 followers.
