I am incredibly honoured to present to you lot, my lovely readership, the exclusive premiere of Nick Flessa’s latest single, ‘Ira Louvin’s Inner Child’.

Nick Flessa is an artist and musician originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, currently based in Los Angeles and Wonder Valley, California. A multi-instrumentalist with a background in film and literature, A Different Kind of Energy is his third solo full-length. Some other musical endeavours include fronting the goth/post-punk outfit Dayton Swim Club and playing bass in the alchemical lo-fi project Squeegees.

He is the longstanding saxophonist for the Austin Leonard Jones band, and has recorded or performed on sax for a variety of projects. For his previous solo record, The Politics of Personal Destruction, Flessa held a residency at Healing Force of the Universe in 2024. He also makes films, composes for film, and has had two solo art exhibitions in Los Angeles. Spanning across multiple media, Flessa’s work is noteworthy for its literary and poetic quality, conceptual yet autobiographical bent, and caustic abject humour. 

‘Ira Louvin’s Inner Child’ is the third single from Flessa’s upcoming album, A Different Kind of Energy, out April 17.
