Former Goat Girl bassist Naima Bock blends folk and the Brazilian music of her childhood into warm, intimate songs that have seen her open for Neil Young and Dinosaur Jr.
Born in Glastonbury to a Brazilian father and a Greek mother, Naima Bock spent her early childhood in Brazil before settling in South-East London, where as a teenager she co-founded post-punk favourites Goat Girl. After six years on bass, she stepped away to follow her own path, and her debut solo album Giant Palm (2022) was the lovely result: a gentle, generous record that weaves together folk, jazz and the Brazilian standards she grew up with. It earned glowing reviews, including Stereogum's Album of the Week, while follow-up Below a Massive Dark Land (2024) drew further praise from the likes of Uncut and Mojo.
On stage, Naima is every bit as captivating, whether she's backed by a full band or a stripped-back two- or three-piece. She's opened for Dinosaur Jr. on their UK tour, Neil Young and the Chrome Hearts at BST Hyde Park, and Jake Xerxes Fussell, and she's played festivals including Green Man, Deer Shed and BBC Radio 6 Music Festival. Expect an unhurried, close-knit set where the bond between Naima and her audience becomes part of the music.
