New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Hot on the heels of the announcement of her forthcoming debut album Nymph due
September 30th via Because Music, UK-based experimental pop artist Shygirl shares the second offering from the album, "Come For Me."
Produced by Arca, "Come For Me" is a broken-down dance track showcasing the various iterations of electronic dance music Shygirl cascades through on Nymph. Throughout the song Shygirl reminds us how she has the power and the know-how to dominate and direct what's going down; "Come when you're called / Be easy if I take the lead" she says.
"Come For Me" follows the lead single from Nymph, "Firefly," which arrived with visuals directed by Yasser Abubeker. The 12-tracks of Nymph were created with a close-knit group of friends and previous collaborators including Mura Masa, Sega Bodega, Karma Kid, Cosha, and as previously mentioned Arca, along with the producers Noah Goldstein,
Danny L Harle, BloodPop, Vegyn and Kingdom. Nymph reveals Shygirl's inner self-reflection in experimental vocal tones and deconstructed dance melodies and exhibits a new level of intimacy and emotional depth in her songwriting.
"Shygirl is in full control of her artistic vision no matter the scale." - NME
"her voice as an artist has never been stronger" - Resident Advisor
"energy that's raunchy and infectious" - Rolling Stone

Nymph will follow Shygirl's collaboration with FKA twigs on the Caprisongs track "papi bones" along with the late 2021 offering "Cleo," which arrived with a
Trinity Ellis-directed music video as well as a live performance of the track from Abbey Road Studios as part of Studio 1's 90th Anniversary programming. Also in 2021, Shygirl shared the slowthai collaboration "BDE" and the self-directed Burberry-styled short film, Shygirl BLU, a live realization of her universally-acclaimed ALIAS EP.
Since the ALIAS EP's release, Shygirl has gone on to star in Burberry's AW21 presentation, claim a coveted spot in Forbes' 30 Under 30, grace the cover of Berlin's influential 032c magazine and team up with Mura Masa to remix the
Lady Gaga and Blackpink track "
Sour Candy" for the praised Dawn of Chromatica album.
