NEL had an hour plus Instagram Live set on Saturday, August 29th. She tried to also have it stream on Facebook, but it sounded like Facebook had updated some settings and she wasn't able to set it up. She was celebrating her video release of the song "Finished." I first happened across her via another Quarantine Online Set when she played the Brave New World festival in May. I found her music enticing and her attitude refreshing.
She played a number of songs as well as answered questions that came up from those watching online. She is a very self-deprecating and modest musician. She mentioned a few times how she was messing up chords and lyrics. I really didn't notice. Okay, I did notice once because she had to slow herself down on the keys to try and get the chords correct, but the other times if she hadn't mentioned it I would have noticed anything.
Her song "Finish" is about an inability to connect romantically and not being able to follow through with love. There is another meaning, as she mentioned during the chat, which is about life in general and not being able to finish goals.
