Very happy to share the first single from my new project Vildava today. ‘13 Shots’ is a song I wrote about Tortuguita and the ongoing Stop Cop City struggle. If you’ve seen me live recently you’ve probably heard it- it always feels like the emotional and energetic core of any set I throw it into. This project has been a long time in the works and I’m thrilled to start rolling it out now. Listen on Bandcamp and @ninaprotocol no parasite platforms for now- links in the place.

rec/prod/mix/master = @liketheletters at @enamouredsound and me at my home studio in Flatbush.
