Intro

Nataly Dawn creates music that feels like a whispered secret shared across a kitchen table. Her sound is defined by an incredible sense of proximity; the vocals are often recorded so closely that you can hear the breath between the notes, creating a sense of immediate, fragile intimacy. While rooted in folk, her arrangements frequently lean into sophisticated jazz harmonies and soulful bass lines that betray her deep musicality.

What truly sets her apart is her approach to vocal stacking. She treats her own voice as a choir, layering intricate, sometimes dissonant harmonies that feel both playful and haunting. There is a distinct 'handmade' quality to her work, even in her more polished studio efforts, maintaining the charm of the DIY YouTube era while elevating it with professional craftsmanship and poetic depth.

Newcomers should start with 'How I Knew Her' to experience her range as a songwriter, or 'Gardenview' for a more mature, stripped-back exploration of her sonic identity. Her covers are also essential listening, showcasing her ability to deconstruct familiar pop melodies and rebuild them into something entirely her own.

Nataly Dawn is an American singer-songwriter and musician. She is one half of the duo Pomplamoose with her husband Jack Conte and has released four studio albums and four EPs, in addition to numerous collaborations with other artists.
