"...a lot of the best artistic culture around the world is the reaction to struggle."
Thank you Nai Palm.
“A lot of people victimize themselves I guess when confronted with trauma but I feel like it’s a seed to react against it , to know your depths and to really measure how you come back from that “
Love that … it’s so true
The coolest most amazing band out there right now.
this is a lifted person. she born to be what she became. i love her.
english is kinda hard for me, so i listen hiatus kayiote without understanding the lyrics very well... but knowing her life story, it all comes together. Its like i knew since the beggining. her voice is conforting her. its conforting everyone who listen. its real magic.
omg yaaas
My daughter Mika just came back from your performance tonight in new york. She said you are such an inspiration to her. She loves your work. Thank you.
Love her vulnerability!
This is one of the most positive comment sections in youtube! Nai palm is definitely a musical genius!
Oh nai palm you absolutely give relief. I discovered your band when I was withdrawing from opiates and in immense physical and emotional pain. I remembered from the countless times I’d done this that music was the only thing that got me off the floor and I found your band looking for something to comfort and encourage my decaying spirit. I burst into tears when I listened to “breathing under water” especially the line, “I could call your demons in, soak them in chamomile” still gets me choked up thinking about what a message from God it felt like. Listen to you everyday since. And now my son listens to you too. He’s 2 and he says “let’s watch guitars mama!” He’s talking about you.
Wow 🥲
😂😂😂🥱🤬🙄
Your soul is a genuine work of art in itself. I hope you continue to express yourself.
best female frontman for a band EVER.
Music is soulful and amazing, I always loved old R&B and their band takes it and makes a new sound, a mix. Adore her soul, I just want to adopt her!
Thanks Nai, I love your mind, and your energy gives me great comfort and joy
An exceptional young woman. Thank you for sharing your personal thoughts, Nai.
Mad me smile every second of the vid. Such an beautiful atmosphere.
Nai Palm!!!!!! Love you girl!
can I find the instrumental performance of Borderline with My Atoms that's playing in the backround somewhere? It's so beautiful without vocals as well
wow all these being here spots are shot really really well!
soo beautiful
Very well produced. Love.
Recordándote! ❤️
this really great. I've had a fought childhood as well and I am an artist. Growing up I've evolved and changed. there was along period if time where I didn't handle things well. and now that I've gotten waaay better at that I sometimes question if an artist can find inspiration when they are not coning frim a dark place. its like what happens when ur happy. and I've suffered from writers block on this topic. bit I still create and teach. I love ur positive outlook as an artist and as a human being alive
Legend

My name is Nai Palm. I am the lead singer, electric guitarist, occasionally piano for Hiatus Kaiyote.
There's never really been a pivotal moment when I realized music affecting me. I was really blessed to grow up in a household that was really creative and musical. My first memory that i could pinpoint it to is riding this yellow trike I had around this massive house in South Yarra. I lived with my mom and my siblings and my mom loved old soul like Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin and Al Green and I remember riding circle around the house listening to Master Blaster? No, not Master Blaster, Boogie On Reggae Woman by Stevie Wonder. You know when you look back to when you were a kid and there's like a few moments of pure joy that was all encompassing? That was one of them. But you know my mother was a contemporary dancer and she was in the Australian Ballet Company when she was 19. She studied dance and used to bring home a lot of music. Soul was kind of the staple but she'd bring a lot of flamenco and West African music.
So I'm an orphan and when my mother was sick I lived with my aunty - her sister. Growing up in a household where it was all soul and flamenco and stuff and then moving to a house where the head matriarch was heavily submerged in classical Indian culture. I was really lucky to be surrounded by amazing culture, and also the celebration of different cultures from around the world from a young age is from my mother and my aunty's influence, so it's always been something I adored, you know, and been completely fascinated with. Music is not.. like, I've always sung and written. I never had any lessons or anything but it was always like a sanctuary I guess. I mean, I had a pretty crazy childhood. My dad was an alcoholic, jewelry make, ex-pikey that left when I was very young and then my mother died when I was 11. So to grow up in such a warm, musical, creative environment and then to go through a harsh emotional trauma when I was a kid, it really... to have those tools of expressing yourself creatively is really important. I feel like a lot of the best artistic culture around the world is the reaction to struggle. A lot of people victimize themselves, I guess, when confronted with trauma, but I feel like it's a seed. To react against it and to know your depths and to really measure how you come back from that. Music was always definitely therapeutically and so important of my personal evolution, regardless of whether it sounded good. The cool thing is learning from a young age how important it is from a young age to me as a person, but I think what really made me make that transition to sharing it with other people didn't come from a place of like 'I need the validation of other people' but more like 'this works for me' and other people might not have the ability to write or make sense of whatever it is they're going through, so by displaying all of your shit people can see it in themselves or can grow empathically through listening to it, which is what I did when I was little. The music that you experience heals you and you relate to it even though you may not have had the exact experience that that person was going through, you can find your own way to relate to it. So I've found it really beautiful to be on the other side of that conversation and to be able to give people relief.
You are a legend, thanks so much :)
:)
+bucketrider. I FUCKING LOVE YOU OMG
Glad I could help!
I'm blown away she didn't say Amy Winehouse is an influence. I think she sounds just like Amy; part of the reason why i started listening to this band, besides the excellent songwriting.
Amy Winehouse is not the only female Jazz singer that have existed, you know...

Madeline Kassen “Borderline With My Atoms”
Does anyone know the name of the song being played at the beginning of the video?!!
The first song is called "Only Time All the Time: Making Friends with Studio Owl." :)
Nina Ragonese Thanks Nina! Yeah, I eventually stumbled upon it a few weeks ago while finally listening to the whole album. It's hard to get past the first half of the album because it's so good! I tend to hit repeat! ....Oh, I listened to the tracks on your Google + page. Excellent! Sing More! I'm going to add you to my Google + if you don't mind? My name is John.
“Therapeutical”....I might use that as a song name?
#MasterBlaster tho
Damn she's THAT amazing. We're talking Kevin Parker levels of amazing here
