From the drifting 2013 single "Wings" to later introspective tracks like "New Compassion," their sound evolved while staying rooted in Nini Fabi's voice.
If you want to hear where they started, put on "Wings." For where they ended up, try "New Compassion", it's got that same airy quality, just a bit more worn-in.
That early single "Wings" had a drifting quality that drew people in, and it set the tone for what followed. Later songs like "New Compassion" and "Fighter" turned darker and more reflective, showing they could shift moods without losing their core. Their music always stayed rooted in that blend of electronic production and Fabi's vocal presence, which gave it a consistent feel even as the rhythms changed.
HAERTS formed in Brooklyn around vocalist Nini Fabi and multi-instrumentalist Benny Rappaport. Their first full album "Hounds of Summer" shifted toward more danceable rhythms, and later records like "Dream Nation" turned darker and more reflective. They kept writing through lineup changes, working on material like "Shivering" and "Your Love" without much fuss about where it fit in the scene.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
