Computerwife, the project of Addie Warncke, was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, the artist started making music as a teenager after hearing Grimes break down the making of “Kill v. Maim” on Song Exploder and downloading a free trial of Ableton to follow her process. In 2018, she moved to New York to study at NYU’s Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music, uploading her first songs as Computerwife to SoundCloud during her freshman year and later gathering five favourites for the Computerwife EP at the start of COVID lockdowns. Today, ahead of a run of tour dates supporting Feeble Little Horse, Warncke is sharing her first new single in three years, a track called “Nobody,” now available via Danger Collective.

“Nobody” took shape as Warncke tried to channel records she had on repeat: Sonic Youth’s Sonic Nurse, Autolux’s Future Perfect, Dear Nora’s Mountain Rock, and Spraydog’s Lines Are Drawn Only by the Eye. Fittingly, it sounds like an escape: a love song lit by casinos, desert roads, hotel rooms, and the temporary freedom of doing nothing with someone else.

Warncke on “Nobody:”

“Nobody” is about being in love in Las Vegas, taking pictures of my boyfriend in hotels, driving through the desert, and staying up all night high on the sidewalk, doing a lot of nothing. It’s about the power of sharing the world with someone else even though no relationship is ever perfect.

Over the next few years, Warncke continued writing and recording, though she deleted her entire stock of demos in a moment of personal crisis. When she signed with Los Angeles independent label Danger Collective, she had to dig through emails, folders, and digital files to see what could be recovered. A Google Drive of songs she had sent to an ex-boyfriend became Computerwife, released in 2023.
