Giant Palm:

Description

The roots of Naima Bock’s music are far reaching. Born in Glastonbury to a Brazilian father and a Greek mother, Naima spent her early childhood in Brazil before eventually returning to England and various homes in South-East London. This heritage combines with more recent pursuits in Naima’s music. From the Brazilian standards that the family listened to while driving to the beach, to the European folk traditions she tapped into on her own, and the pursuits that interest her today – studies in archaeology, work as a gardener, and walking the world’s great trails – Naima’s music draws from family, the earth and music handed down through generations. Naima’s debut album ‘Giant Palm’ is undoubtedly infused with the Brazilian music of her youth and regular family visits. She found inspiration in ‘the percussion, the melodies, chords – and particularly the poetic juxtaposition of tragedy and beauty held within the lyrics’.
