To spend time with Nico Paulo, who never seems to stop singing, humming, and seeking melody is to find grounding beauty and sustainability in the becoming. Its a special thing, to cultivate these intervals: theyre often the places where were finally able to find the present.

On her latest EP aptly titled Interval_othe o nods to Paulos Portuguese heritagethe Newfoundland-based songwriters brief collection of ambient meditations and stream-of-life fragments celebrates a transformational period.

The purpose of it was to represent what I was experiencing, too, Paulo says. I was feeling like I had run out of things to say, but I still want to sing to people. I was wondering, Is there a way of doing that? Can I still keep people company with words and sound and not have to tell a full story?

Interval_o builds a sonic space for listeners to embrace their own metamorphoses, and to sing and dance all the way through them.
