These intimate performances focus heavily on her mesmerizing vocal range and intricate guitar styling, striping down full-band arrangements to highlight the acoustic vulnerability found on her solo album, Needle Paw.

Hiatus Kaiyote is a melbourne-based, worldwide-beloved, genre-fluid Hiatus Kaiyote. Nai Palm (guitar, vox), Paul Bender (bass), Simon Mavin (keys), and Perrin Moss (drums) debuted in 2012 with LP Tawk Tomahawk, making fans of Erykah Badu, Questlove, and Prince, and embraced by tastemakers like Gilles Peterson and DJ Jazzy Jeff. Their first R&B Grammy nomination, for “Nakamarra,” was followed by another for “Breathing Underwater,” from their second LP, 2015’s Choose Your Weapon. They’ve been sampled on songs by The Carters (Beyonce + Jay-Z), Kendrick Lamar, Anderson .Paak, Chance The Rapper, and Drake, with whom Nai Palm collaborated on his Scorpion album.

Mood Valiant was the product of four years of writing, recording and touring, interrupted by a significant event: Nai Palm’s diagnosis with breast cancer. Her recovery and the band’s subsequent trip to Brazil to work with arranger Arthur Verocai led to “Get Sun”, which soars with Verocai’s orchestrations and rides the knotty grooves that Hiatus fans have come to expect. Through it all rings Nai’s singular verse and voice. “When you think your life is going to be taken away from you, it makes you think about who you are,” Nai says. “My only wish is to live and offer my experience of time and beauty.” The Mood Valiant album is available on Brainfeeder Records / Ninja Tune.
