Office Magazine | Taraneh's New Age Prayer

Fresh off the release of her third single, “On Repeat”, from her upcoming record, New Age Prayer, Taraneh is ready for the world. The New York City-based artist tells us that she feels as if she’s stepped into a new era, one defined by power and control. Last Saturday, I sat down with Taraneh in her Chinatown apartment, where we delved into her latest, most expansive project yet. We also talk about the “death” of genre, making music for your younger self, and the joy in exploring louder vocals than her typically softer melodies.

Interview Magazine | Evanora:Unlimited and Taraneh on the Power of Prayer

Before their friendship and musical collaboration materialized, Evanora:Unlimited was having dreams about Taraneh. “They were in my subconscious because I listened to their music so much,” he explained. The pair went from DMing to touring the world together, merging their frenetic styles and finding unexpected waves of inspiration, including a recording of a prayer to Mother Mary that Evanora overhead in Poland (which was eventually interpolated into their new single “Salt Water”). The pair joined last week in a cramped back room during a release party for Taraneh’s solo single to talk about their creative partnership, touring the world together, and making music in a dentist’s office.

PAPER Mag | You’re Going To Give Taraneh What She Wants

Taraneh has established herself as a magnetic force in the New York music scene. On stage she looks like a goth Debbie Harry and sings like a moody siren. We met up on the heels of her latest single release, “Face of Fear,” at home in Chinatown, where she’s just rearranged her bedroom. In the newly feng shui'd space, Taraneh and I talk dreams, writing for her inner 13-year-old and her increasingly amped-up sound.
