Description
Human Human, the debut album from Chicago singer, songwriter, and producer Carlile (real - name Emily Nichols), is a remarkable synth - pop treasure. The band has recently opened for Marina Herlop, Elliot Moss, Neal Francis, Mo, and Thumpasaurus, and their music was featured in Netflix’s Sex/Life. This album is a celebration of self - acceptance. It radiates with the joy of being true to oneself, embracing all the awkward and terrifying moments on the journey to self - love. Emily Nichols, a well - known figure in Chicago's underground music scene, has spent the past decade releasing synth - pop EPs and performing at iconic venues. With Human Human, she showcases her growth as an artist. The album is unselfconsciously playful, with sweeping arcs that bring to mind the warmth of Robyn and the luster of MUNA. Nichols expanded her production skills for this album, taking full control from the spark of an idea to the final execution. She worked with longtime collaborator Noam Wallenberg to polish the demos. Together, they added brightness to the album, with delicate vocal accents in 'Illusion' and layers of harmonies in 'Fake Nice'. The album also features production contributions from notable Chicago artists like Neal Francis, Luke Titus, Macie Stewart (of Finom), and Cocojoey.
