“Feeling overwhelmed, I was faced with myself alone and the choices I had made over the past several years. With conflicted feelings of longing, remorse, and loneliness, I felt caged by a sentiment I could neither explain nor understand. I was alone. My mind had fooled me,” shares iskwē. nīna, the opus of iskwē’s rebirth, is the Cree translation for “me” and was chosen as the title of her new album as an ode to the profoundly autobiographical elements. The album, due April 12th, is the sonic manifestation of the divine feminine explored through vignettes of love, passion, anger, betrayal, and loss. The forthcoming album is featured on CBCMusic.ca's “can’t wait to hear” in 2024 albums list, and they state, “iskwē is offering us a re-introduction to who she is today — and it just happens to be filled with plenty of bangers.” Exclaim included on their Most Anticipated Albums of 2024 and said: “If single "I Get High" — featuring none other than the legendary Nina Hagen — is any indication, nīna will find iskwē scaling brand new heights." Produced by 10x GRAMMY nominee Damian Taylor (Björk, Bomba Estéreo, The Killers), the album will also include her FIRST-EVER Top 20 Alt-Rock single "I Get High" Feat. Nina Hagen, "Sure To Come," “End Of It All,” “Part Two,” and “Waiting For The Laughter."
