One of my favourite "new" artists! (I'm almost 60 so anything after 2000 feels new to me!)

Shout out to the bass player. Groovy!

Haven't had this feeling since Cocteau Twins in high school. Marvelous. Thank you.

Aw sweetheart - thank you for being honest with us about the tragedy and finding your path forward. We all need to remember how hard these things are.

As I have personally experienced with tragedy - and as I tell my students at university - it's not the obstacles, it's the persistence. And most of all, it's the love. You stopped your degree to take care of a dying parent? Then that's what you do.

Cheryl Waters keeps looking younger every time i see her. God bless and God bless kexp❤

And protect Cheryl Waters at all costs. This lady is made of pure gold 💚

Her heart felt crying made this a beautiful interview.

Great drummer.

Always great to hear a London accent; lived half my life there, great music mate! And thanks for the good cry at the end to wash it all down.

Gawd, I’ve been watching this show for many, many episodes, but this… this hit different. ❤ I’ve been a die-hard fan of so many great guests, but hearing the beautiful work on this record, and then HOW it came together. New fan. Thank you KEXP.

So that's where Buddy Guy's strat went! Great show, thanks.

This is such soulful music. Pure light. Love this session so much!

I am so happy that I found this by chance.

Cheryl Waters is THE MOST gentle and honestly kind person in kexp. She's absolute gold ❣️ im so happy you found it

That bass!!! Sounds awesome.

Incredible full hearted music! Appreciate the authentic heartfelt sharing. The depth of the music was transformed from a place of loss and uncertainty. Grandad shared important wisdom. I'm just learning about their music and its the deep medicine.

Beautiful.

her voice is truly heavenly. Nabihah Iqbal, so glad to have you making music!

She plays like an unconstrained bassist but if you want to say she’s playing like a lead guitar & fucking up then that’s a cool un-nuanced opinion

This was really enjoyable. Thanks for bringing us this great band from the UK.

Thank you so much, KEXP, for inviting Nabihah and her band. Been enjoying her new album immensely -- one of my favorite 2023 releases so far!

Wow,i love it good music .

This makes my day. Soooo lovely.

Her music is like heaven for people who enjoy cocetau twins

Listened to her previous album a lot! This is making me happy :)

Fascinating and enjoyable on many levels.

So excited to see her this Tuesday! I've been waiting since 2017, "Something More" hooked me right away.

Terribly moving... And a splendid album!

So Cocteau Twins. Loved it

Yes indeed, and This Mortal Coil, Dead Can Dance and even a bit of Flock of Seagull's (guitar at some moment) but without Paul Reynolds touch...which would be great for a crecendo on some of the song. Anyway, Great music and a nice discovery for me today.

Takes me to Lush and Pale Saints. It's endearing how we namecheck their influences...I hope 🙂

Nabihah Iqbal and her band are so talented that it is not fair.

The guitar solo in Closer Lover is shocking and epic, play it again at the shows please! I love them

fantastic!!! love her

Great music! So dreamy, I love it.

If her voice sounds familiar, she did vocals for Sophie's early releases such as Lemonade back in 2013. Such a warm energy and vibe, and a fantastic talent.
