Moses Sumney
Moses Sumney just strolled into our lives with his loop pedal and his jazzy soul-drenched voice and, without an album or a cassette tape or even a white-labeled CD-R, he’s the name on everybody’s lips. His smile is like a rainbow and his one-man performance is so damn appealing that even my grandma and her bingo friends are anxious to buy his record, whenever he decides he’s ready to drop something in the near or distant future. Sumney is in a good position. He’s played with Beck, Solange, Jose Gonzalez, and gotten his own local residency, all based on a video or two and word of mouth. Now people are talking and waiting, and he can do whatever he wants. This interview by Daiana Feuer.
