Néomí, the stage name of folk-pop singer-songwriter Neomi Speelman, creates heartfelt stories set to dreamy soundscapes inspired by folk greats like Bon Iver, Ben Howard, Bob Dylan, and Phoebe Bridgers. Her second EP 'after' received acclaim from Sunday Times, The Independent, The Line of Best Fit, NOTION, Songwriting Magazine, WONDERLAND, Record of the Day, and more. Her new single 'your girl' showcases a dream-pop-inspired style, a departure from her acoustic roots. With her debut album set for May 2024, Néomí is evolving her sound. Steve Lamacq at 6 Music played 'your girl,' and NPO 3FM in the Netherlands added it to their playlist, with support from DMY, Earmilk, and Record. Néomí's participation in SXSW is facilitated through Music Matters' Dutch Drop Off Program, which is based in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, highlighting their commitment to nurturing emerging talent and providing artists with a global platform. This collaboration further solidifies Néomí's presence in the music industry and opens new horizons for her music.
