Nick & June

Nick & June float in a glittering fog of trilling synthesizers, gentle beat and drum pulses and vibrating organ sounds. Embedded in dark reverb guitars, the bitter-sweet paired voices of Suzie-Lou Kraft and Nick Wolf lead the way through euphorically orchestrated restraint and meditative ramifications of thought. An idiosyncratic, abstract sound emerges, combining lonely, beautiful indie folk à la Bon Iver, Velvet Underground or Sharon Van Etten, the dream pop of Beach House and Lana Del Rey with alternative rock by The National, St. Vincent or Mazzy Star.

Not least during their long stay in the USA, including album production with Grammy-winning producer Peter Katis (The National, Interpol, Stars, Sharon Van Etten, among others), Nick & June further developed their sound, ideas and aesthetics. It becomes cinematic and atmospheric. Sometimes large-scale, sometimes lo-fi. Coarse-grained and warmly produced. Expansive, with plenty of room for enchanting melodies and the harmoniously melding voices ofof the two – with pictorial lyrics that set the mental cinema in motion. The new album, which will also feature friends, companions and idols such as The Antlers, Russian Red, Owen Pallett (Arcade Fire) and Thomas Bartlett (Sufjan Stevens, St. Vincent), is still under wraps and is currently being finalized.

In the studio and on stage, Nick & June circle between guitars, ukuleles, shimmering mandolins and deep basses, between old Casio keyboards, arpeggio synthesizers and echoing horns, playful percussion, drum machines and alienated glockenspiel sounds. After their last successful album “My November My” and a long creative break, the indie duo released their comeback EP “Beach Baby, Baby” in May 2023, which ushered in a new chapter. Praised by music critics, Nick & June cracked radio and online charts, graced cultural radio at midnight as well as TV evening programs, played in cinemas and on airline flights overseas and played hundreds of concerts across Europe. Wonderfully unwieldy tracks such as “Home Is Where The Heart Hurts Part 1” and “London City, Boy, It’s Killing Me” become little indie anthems and are streamed over 20 million times.

In 2025, Nick & June go on tour again with brand new music.
