Nisa has shared “Breach,” a brand new cut off her debut album Shapeshifting due out April 26 via Tender Loving Empire Records. Strapped with electronic flourishes and experimental guitar lines, the beat-driven atmospheric new single projects an outer confidence opening with powerfully poised assertions: “Cut the shit and walk right in / A hall of mirrors / No illusions / No forgiveness.”

Speaking about the track Nisa shares, “Breach” is a rehearsal of a break-up with an inconstant version of myself.”

Fittingly opening with a track titled “Ready… Set!,” the new collection is a journey towards self-acceptance, self-actualization and a coherent sense of identity. As a daughter of Albanian immigrants, Nisa grew up listening to traditional folk music. As a young person living in New York City and studying in London, she was introduced to the world of English-speaking pop music and enamored by artists like Björk, Peter Gabriel and PJ Harvey. Shapeshifting is a reflection of this interest in forward-thinking sounds—encircled by disorienting processed electronics, chunky guitars, gauzy vocals and unusual melodic choices.
