The expressive power of her singing continues to set her apart" The Wall Street Journal "Nilüfer Yanya returns with the vibrant, spare and breathtaking ‘My Method Actor’. The London-based singer-songwriter is like no one else out there, offering songs that appear at first like pleasing soft sketches until they reveal their depth and power, like tissue paper made of palladium." Associated Press "On ‘My Method Actor,’ Nilüfer Yanya draws deeply from a search for meaning with vulnerability and humor. Yanya has created a collection of songs that both grasp at the opacity of what is to come and revel in the freedom of letting go. ‘My Method Actor’ is Yanya’s most self-assured and driven album to date" The FADER (July 2, 2025) - Nilüfer Yanya releases her new EP Dancing Shoes via Ninja Tune out now. Dancing Shoes was written alongside a collection of tracks that Nilüfer re-approached with her creative partner Wilma Archer when she returned from touring her latest record. The project comes alongside a new visualizer for the track "Kneel" and includes Nilüfer’s previous singles “Where To Look” and “Cold Heart,” the later which led The FADER to proclaim, “Once again Yanya shows her versatility and ability to pull something airy and bright from the very depth of her feelings.” Following the EP release Nilüfer will be heading on tour across North America with Alex G this Fall. The tour begins in Boston on September 11th with stops in Toronto, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia and more. Throughout the tour Nilüfer will be performing select headline dates in Richmond, Amherst, Omaha and Sacramento. Following the North American run Nilüfer will then pick up to tour with Lorde for a string of shows across the UK in November. Nilüfer recently performed at Glastonbury and will be making appearances at select European festivals over the summer including Green Man, All Points East, and Way Out West as well as Corona Capitol in Mexico on Nov 14th.  The new EP follows Nilüfer Yanya’s latest album My Method Actor, which was released to overwhelming critical praise with a Best New Music stamp from Pitchfork and the New York Times describing as, “A melodically rich meditation on identity, desire and the reverberations of heartache.” Nilüfer’s previous albums ​​PAINLESS and Miss Universe also both received high praise, ranking among the year's best by The New York Times, NPR, Pitchfork, Vulture and more. Nilüfer performed celebrated singles on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Late Night with Stephen Colbert, Later with Jools Holland and NPR’s legendary Tiny Desk concert series. She’s supported Adele, the XX and Mitski on tour, headlined London’s Shepherd’s Bush Empire and sold out shows across Europe, Australia, Japan and the USA. Yanya has also been remixed by Sampha, King Krule and Little Dragon and has collaborated with Bombay Bicycle Club and Liss.
