Little Butterfly is a song about those who do not understand what 'no' means, persistently pushing one's boundaries until they take from you everything possible. Accumulated anger represented by ice-cold industrial drums, naïve vulnerability by gentle ethereal vocals, and sharp pain by layers of aggressive synthesisers, Nina Kohout's new single tells a deeply personal story of an unprotected purity set in a world full of evil and parasites. Little Butterfly is an anthem for the angry ones.

Little Butterfly

Nina Kohout is a sonic storyteller who pushes the boundaries of musical obedience, forming a constant conversation between an invasive horror and a fragile purity. In her music, she connects the eerie atmosphere of ancient Slovak folklore, classical music elements, and dark electronica.

In 2020, Slovakia-born, UK-based artist Nina Kohout won the Radio_Head award for the Newcomer of the Year (curated by the Slovak national radio), which she received for her debut single Blue Sunray. Her critically acclaimed debut EP Pandemonium (incl. the song Moonlight featured as the Song of the Day by KEXP Radio) got Nina’s name mentioned in BBC Radio 6 Music and music magazines such as Under the Radar, Louder than War, and Electronic Sound magazine. Her past shows include playing at the iconic Kino Šiška in Ljubljana, the Liveurope Festival in Prague, the Ahoi! Pop Festival in Linz, as well as the biggest European showcase festival Eurosonic in the Netherlands.

Her autumn tour will include playing at the Waves Vienna Festival, BUSH Festival in Budapest, and Santeria in Milan.
