Nailah Hunter, Harpist, Pianist, Singer, and Composer from Los Angeles

In Episode 5, Ami Dang chats with Nailah Hunter, a composer, harpist, pianist, singer, and music educator from Los Angeles. Ami and Nailah discuss how she approached her compositions as spells, the annoying trendiness of new age spiritual practices, her (undiagnosed) synaesthesia, teaching music in quarantine, and more. Nailah Hunter’s debut album Spells was released on Leaving Records in May 2020. Each of the six tracks represent a spell, a unique sonic place forged by imagination and incantation. Check out her work at http://nailahhunter.bandcamp.com.
