Last year, we had the pleasure of premiering this New York-turned-LA singer/songwriter’s music video for the wonderful title track from her New Hands EP. So, while we patiently wait for new original music from Natalie Angiuli, we’re happy to again feature her here on DSIMH with her cover of Katy Perry’s latest single, “Roar“. The adorable self-filmed video shows Angiuli in her apartment recording all the instruments herself, jumping on her couch, and hanging out with her cats. Her arrangement is more stripped down than the original, focusing on jangly acoustic guitars and layers of her sweet vocals. Ringing guitars, sprinkles of piano, and simple percussion round everything out while she dances around the room in her Roy Lichentstein POP shirt and her pale yellow telecaster.
We’re big fans of Natalie Angiuli so, naturally, we were excited when she asked us to premiere her video for “New Hands” off her New Hands EP.
“New Hands” is considerably a little more daring than her previous work but with more meaning and thought put into it. I previously said that her indie-pop, folky sound is so easy to vibe with. She hasn’t changed and it’s easy to see her roots in the EP.
The girl from New York who’s now in sunny LA, she fits right at home mixing poetry and sound.
