Adjenai

Adjenai (ah-juh-nay) makes music that goes somewhere heavy and comes out the other side. Sharp hooks, head-bob beats, bold vulnerability, adventurous textures abound, as do fresh inspiration from indie-pop, indie-rock, emo pop-rock, and contemporary R&B. Their songs present an intriguing disconnect as personal and richly emotive lyrics are often soundtracked by bubbly pop. “LA-based indie singer/songwriter Adjenai makes airy, moving, and thoughtful indie pop, crafting an outlet for both glimmering melodies and plaintive personal confession.” — Under the Radar Magazine Originally from the east coast, but having spent their adolescent years traveling with nomadic parents, Adjenai is led by a desire for connection and communication. They make genre-blending music that feels like calling a friend after a night out — a hazy, frantic expression of sincerity. ✶ ✶ ✶ Likes: Journaling, libraries, dogs, soft lighting, haikus, and stand-up comedy. Dislikes: Crowded grocery store aisles, the fact that “aisle” is spelled like that, wasps.
