About this item

Ahead of her album, "Amateur", out in October; D.S.A. and Night School Records teaming up to release a limited edition 7”: "Certe Notti" by Molly Nilsson. The record contains the two new songs "Un Po’ Più Vicino al Cielo" and "Il Peggior Bar di Caracas", neither of which are due on the forthcoming album.

The songs were written and recorded in August 2024 in San Giorgio del Sannio, Benevento, during a month long artist residency, made possible thanks to the kind invitation and hospitality of AUNA a.p.s. A whole moon spent between local festivities, sagras and late nights in the best of worst bars, making new friends forever and life-long memories (including an unforgettable Inti-Illimani concert), all infused with sweet drinks and ancient lore of local witches.

The cover art depicts the view from the window on one of those nights, the rising moon, Liquore Strega yellow, and the inlay hints at Nilsson's favourite crosswords magazine. With all these distractions it’s really a wonder any music was made at all. But thanks in large part to endless espressi and ginseng, two new songs came to be. The first is Nilsson’s first opus in the Italian language! The second, a hommage to her favourite joint and hang out, The Worst Bar in Caracas.

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: More charming than a Geordie weatherman, Molly Nilsson drops an utterly gorgeous double headed 7". Two tracks that aren't on her forthcoming album, sung in Italian for extra cool points. She makes it seem effortless!
