NANCY's vivacious new cut “Call Me On Your Telephone” exudes psychedelia and new wave funk

“Call Me On Your Telephone” is the first single release from Brighton artist NANCY's upcoming EP Happy Oddities, out this summer. NANCY offers up an in-your-face bop saturated with playful guitars, hectic drums, and to-the-point vocals, all perfectly intertwining into an amalgamation of adventurous production filled with psychedelia.

“‘Call Me On Your Telephone’ is a personal ode to new wave, and the genius of Bowie and David Byrne,” says NANCY. “Like me, it’s chaotic, shambolic and fuckin’ bonkers. A song written in isolation for the isolated. Stay weird.”

He adds, “Some days I can’t decide if humanity is in decline, or if Twitter has just enabled me to know all the pain and sorrow in the world that has always been there. Maybe it’s a mixture of both... Either way, it’s hard to know what to do with these emotions sometimes so I choose to write songs. On occasion, they come out self-assured and purposeful, other times they come out like ‘Call Me On Your Telephone’. A mash-up of joyful sorrow, fearless and unapologetic in its wonkiness.

“A musical homage to some of my favourite artists (Scary Monsters era Bowie, Talking Heads, Devo), a lyrical Jackson Pollock of conflicting emotions. Also, it has a fucking cowbell on it. People aren’t doing this enough. So allow me to ring in the renaissance (With a cowbell obviously).”

Released as a double-A side with the spellbinding “Hangin’ On For Dear Life”, Nancy’s “Call Me On Your Telephone” is out today via B3SCI Records.
