Niecy Blues is a composer, songwriter, vocalist, thespian, multimedia artist, and instrumentalist based in South Carolina, originally growing up on the prairie fields of Oklahoma. Exploring themes such as grief, self-acceptance, lineage, ritual, and emotional vulnerability in her work, Blues continues a heritage of Black women using both sound and writing to engage in the ceremony of self-determination and documentation.Blues describes their songwriting process like an undertow: “I feel a strange pull, and let it carry me, following swirling leaves… whole days roll by, forgetting about the body.” Their full-length debut album, Exit Simulation, released by Kranky Records, captures this sense of deep-rooted divination, cycling between simmering ballads, ghosted R&B, downtempo gospel, and looped vocal improvisations—often within the same track. Exit Simulation has received glowing reviews from Pitchfork, Boomkat, Resident Advisor, PopMatters, and several other celebrated and respected music publications. Blues has also been recognized in Crack Magazine for her breakout performance at the world-renowned Rotterdam music festival, Rewire, during her first solo European tour.
Blues has recently showcased at London music festival staples, We Out Here and All Points East, and completed a performance residency with Galeria Zé dos Bois (ZDB) in Madeira, Portugal. Niecy is currently exploring new sounds for her sophomore album and scoring projects, in addition to finalizing a short film with collaborator Ryan C. Clarke.
Admission is free; ticket reservations are encouraged.
