Anya Anastasia's distinctive music is a powerful blend of experimental folk and art-rock, steeped in global music influences. Driven by catchy guitar riffs, complex rhythms, and rich distinctive vocals, Anya and her band weave layers of sonic detail to paint strange and dreamlike landscapes that are vibrant and intoxicating. Anya's lyrics ask questions about our society, conspiring to stir dissent and environmental action. Amidst the grind of modern industrial life, her songs transcribe wonders of the natural world. In collaboration with her diverse and accomplished band (Satomi Onishi - drums, Gareth Chin - keys, Clara Gillam Grant - Cello, Jamie Lena - Bass) Anya draws on myriad musical influences and takes an experimental approach to crafting tones and textures inspired by her own local natural environment. The songs are infused with late-stage-capitalism anthroposcene angst, and awe at the astonishing beauty of the natural world.
