Erisy Watt

LA-based songwriter Erisy Watt just released her third album, not either or but everything, on October 4th via First City Artists. Described as “what contemporary folk sounds like at its peak” by No Depression, her music often draws comparisons to 60s singer-songwriters, but her new record—co-produced with Luke Temple (Adrianne Lenker, Hand Habits)—shakes loose from the tenets of decade or genre. Originally from Nashville and previously residing in Portland, Erisy now calls LA home but splits her time between there and Southeast Asia, where she works in environmental science—an aspect of her life that appears woven through her songs. Featuring stunning guitar work from Will Graefe (Maya Hawke) and drums by Kosta Galanopoulos, not either or but everything is out everywhere now—available for streaming or on vinyl.
