London, United Kingdom
London-based Piney Gir originally hails from Kansas and has for many years been a prolific and prodigious musician, spanning various genres from electro to alt-country to folktronic to 60’s retro pop to krautrock. She has released seven albums to date; her new material lands at art pop with angles creating a real world of sound with deliberate spaces and spikes. There are still echoes of the signature Piney sound, with strong melodies, tuneful riffs and twisted lyrics that sound sweet at first listen and evolve to some kind of dark twisted storytelling. Piney’s inner Laura Palmer emerges with a tender bitter-sweetness, reminiscent of post punk basement bars and cherry martinis.
In addition to being a solo artist, Piney is a backing singer with Gaz Coombes and Noel Gallagher and is a monthly host of Soho Radio's "Other Woman Show" on the Culture Channel.
