Not a Good Judge, the first single from our upcoming album We’re Trying Our Best is about getting out of your own way when you don’t believe you deserve the best. Lead singer/songwriter Joy Deyo: “Not a Good Judge is about pushing past doubt, even when it’s your own. Sometimes you have to put anxiety in its place. It’s about listening to past or future versions of yourself that had or will have more faith in your abilities than you have in the moment.”

Not A Good Judge

Combining a deep love of melody with a penchant for noise emanating from suburban garages everywhere, Sweet Nobody writes anthems for the soft-spoken, the unassuming, the overlooked, and the under appreciated. Formed in 2017 and continuing despite the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Sweet Nobody has managed to release two albums recorded and mixed by LA indie rock wizard Joel Jerome—Loud Songs for Quiet People (2017) and We’re Trying Our Best (2021)—both of which have garnered acclaim and singles featured on tv and radio. 

Their upcoming album, sees them expand on their garagey jangle pop sound to include the New Wave transfiguration of late 50s/early 60s teenage pop, post-punk tones, unabashed 80s radio power pop and it’s heartland rock intersection, the romance of shoegazey dream pop, college rock and those r&b influenced moments of 80s UK indie.

Crazy little soul. Any music, all music, all the time.
