Tei Shi

Born in Buenos Aires, Valerie Teicher has since lived in Bogota, Vancouver, Montreal and Boston before settling in New York, where she’s since been crafting her Tei Shi project. Her debut EP Saudade (a Portuguese and Gallic term that has no direct translation, but “describes a deep emotional state of nostalgia or melancholic longing”) dropped at the end of last year, and it’s fronted by the warm, beautifully languid M&Ms and ends with the courageous acappella track Heart Shaped Birthmark. We’re strongly recommending this, and if Teicher can keep up this magic, there’s no reason she shouldn’t be huge in 2014.
