About

Naess made her name in the early ‘00s on warm, radiant, lyrically-driven indie rock, earning a wide range of rave reviews. Vanity Fair’s Lisa Robinson called her debut “gorgeous,” while Billboard lauded her “sweetly melancholic” and “angel-evoking” sound. In those years, Naess was living in the historic Chelsea Hotel, befitting her prominent role in the New York music scene and international cult following. 

Today, as a mother of two, Naess continues to make waves with new music that resonates with fans old and new. In 2024 alone, she released several notable tracks, including “Karma’s Comet” and “Holding On,” which have elevated her presence on TikTok and Instagram. "Holding On" gained further recognition at the Ralph Lauren SS25 show, while the "Karma’s Comet" remix by Skai captured significant attention on TikTok.

Singular moments of vitality, loss, and growth in Naess’ life define her songs’ origin, but the emotions she conveys are universal, touching listeners wherever they are on their own journeys.
