NLX Wants You to BITCH GET FIT!
BITCH GET FIT is the much anticipated,
first full-length offering from NLX, but to call it a debut would be somewhat
misleading. It’s taken two years of preparation, collaboration and one tiny
lawsuit to make this masterpiece. Recorded in both NYC and Toronto, NLX joined
forces again with acclaimed producer/composer Byron Kent Wong to create an
extraordinarily distinct, vibrant and compelling album. In a time of one hit
wonders and copycat artists, NLX stands alone.
Raised in the icy shadows of Canada’s steel
city smoke stacks, NLX hails from the proud tradition of BS-free northern
songwriting women. She continues to carry the electronically edged pop torch
with BITCH GET FIT ... 16 tracks of blow your mind and open your heart lyrical
and musical smack. It is fists in the air, tears on the floor, don’t look back
but close the door kind of music.
But performing live is where the full spectrum
of NLX’s vivid colors are at their sharpest. She may be new to you, but her
keyboard/laptop toting wheels have spun hundreds of thousands of highway miles
to countless gigs, big and small, always honing the craft, faithfully recreating
her original works night after night, and always with the passion of a first
time performance.
From 3,000+ soft-seaters while opening for
Matthew Good and David Usher, to Lower East Side rock clubs to intimate cafes in
Greenwich Village, NLX invites you into her heart and makes her way into yours
with delightful blunt humor lifted from the same divine source as her music. You
laugh, you cry. Experience NLX don’t be afraid, you might just find love.
P.S. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR GREY, YOU
SHOULD GO AND GET YOURSELF A NICE CASHMERE SWEATER INSTEAD!
