about

In 2018 a classically-trained harp player walked into an underground rave in London. Thrilled by the sense of community that drove the party, UK-based singer/producer TATYANA made it a goal to play her own music in this kind of environment some day. No surprise, that’s exactly what she did the following year. It’s not the kind of show one might expect an artist with her background to play, but this is how things happen in TATYANA’s world – her moves seem surprising until you realize they’ve made perfect sense all along.

Born to Russian and English parents, she lived in Holland, Russia, Singapore, and Boston – where she attended Berklee College of Music on a full scholarship – before settling back in her hometown of London in 2017; the transient nature of her upbringing has certainly informed her music. From underground raves to viral YouTube covers to playing harp on tour with Neneh Cherry, there seems to be no scene that she doesn’t thrive in. Her new music is a multi-faceted product of all of that experience, the kind of precisely produced, impossibly catchy pop that takes other artists entire careers to nail.

It makes sense, considering all of this, that when asked to describe her music, TATYANA picks a color instead of a sound. She chooses the color blue, for the sense of peaceful melancholy that underpins even her most upbeat tracks. It’s not quite sad or happy; like everything with TATYANA, it’s content to sit somewhere in between.

lyrics

In the summer we go
swimming in the river
drinking juice and liquor
mm

the only ones in this town
burning all our bridges
look for something bigger

I'll keep this moment
in my head (in my head)
take a piece of my heart
always be my wild card (be my wild card)
I hope we don't forget (don't forget)
we never have to be like them
we never have to be like them

and I just want to hold
hold your hand forever
nobody knows better than you do
mm

even when we get old
we can be together
we can be together

I'll keep this moment
in my head (in my head)
take a piece of my heart
always be my wild card (be my wild card)
I hope we don't forget (don't forget)
we never have to be like them
we never have to be like them no

wherever you are
I can reach you
to summon up
or send you back again
we're everywhere

I'll take this moment
in my head (in my head)
take a piece of my heart
always be my wild card (be my wild card)
I hope we don't forget (don't forget)
we never have to be like them
we never have to be like them no
