LAS: Your lyrics are known for weaving social, political,
and personal narratives. Can you share some insights into
your songwriting process and how you bring depth and

darkness to your tracks?

NAN: It’s funny because lyrics always come last for me. I really

spend my energy in first creating the sound and conveying
some kind of emotional context just through the music itself. For
me, that’s really where the depth and darkness come in to play.

From there, the subject matter of the lyrics usually just kind of
falls in to place somehow, whether it’s drawing on my own
experiences or a little fictional story that stirs up the same

feeling as the music.
