Billy Nomates will start a UK tour in November.

Billy Nomates will release her second studio album CACTI on January 13th next year.

“Writing CACTI took just over a year,” she says. “I wrote very intensely and then none at all. (This seems to be the way I work best.)”




“I picked up old drum machines, mapped out things in my kitchen with the same small micro keyboard I always use and then raided the cupboards and rooms at Invada Studios, to play and experiment with old synths, an upright piano, this weird organ thing. I hope everyone finds their own narrative in CACTI. I think it’s about surviving it all.”

Lead track ‘balance is gone’ asks whether, ‘anybody can feel on kilter?’, and, ‘Has anybody achieved all that harmony?’.

CACTI tracklist:

balance is gone
black curtains in the bag
blue bones (deathwish)
CACTI
saboteur forcefield
roundabout sadness
spite
fawner
same gun
