Deerlady (Mali Obomsawin): Performing Artist in New York

About Deerlady (Mali Obomsawin)

Deerlady is the rock/pop project of Mali Obomsawin, a musician and songwriter whose work moves between band energy and close-listening detail. In performance, she brings her own name and the Deerlady moniker into the same frame, treating authorship as part of the material. In New York City she appears at National Sawdust, a room that favors careful sound and unhurried pacing. Her sets tend to privilege clarity over spectacle, with arrangements that leave space for the voice and the line of the song.
