Vocally, she's the missing link between Kathleen Hanna and Juliana Hatfield, with a wail matched only by her whisper. The Lucy Ricardo of indie rock! Nan enjoys writing songs ..s and guitar and experimenting live with a rotating cast of musicians she has coined the One Night Stands. Her EP, For Champs and Losers, Version 1, is out now on OJ. She is working on a new record.
"There’s something about watching a solo performer soundcheck a distortion pedal that makes rock fans bristle with excitement; sure there’s no band, but the set is going to kick it anyway. Nan Turner didn’t disappoint, displaying a striking amount of diversity as she moved between guitar, Casiotone, piano, and rapping (well) on the mic. Turner’s delivery echoes the sloppy charm of old Replacements and Liz Phair records. Her characters are vulnerable but ultimately empowered by whatever they’ve been through, even preferring the “strong headwind.†Songs like “Fallout†present their lyrical images like a vase that’s been dropped on the floor and swept into a box: you can’t quite make out what it is, but there pieces clearly belong to a beautiful whole."
