Madam Nightingale returns with Hopeful - a joyous expression of unconditional love and hope that firmly cements their current disco era. Featuring earnest lyrics and crisp electropop production, Hopeful tells the tale of supporting a loved one through a depressive episode. Hopeful's core message is to lean on those who truly love you to get you through your darkest hours.
About the Artist
I’m Phaedra, the artist behind Madam Nightingale, a Naarm-based alter ego making synth-pop, dance-pop and theatrical electronic music for the beautifully strange.
I’m reaching out to introduce you to my upcoming single, Hopeful, which is part of my planned 2027 debut album, Synchronised Drowning.
The album is a meditation on human resilience, despair and the decision to keep moving forward. Madam Nightingale is imagined almost as an oracle or spiritual counsellor, singing songs back to humanity about the strange, difficult and beautiful experience of being alive.
This profile is waiting for you, Madam Nightingale!
