Sometimes things just don’t work out.

That’s the realization Brooklyn-based Softee’s come to on her new single. The Juilliard-trained songstress, whose real name is Nina Grollman, got her start recording bedroom-produced Katy Perry covers in her native Minnesota. The cold winters aren’t why she developed the moniker Softee, yet it is a nod to the beloved treat. It’s an earnest descriptor of her music, made especially evident on “Isn’t Enough”, the latest single from her upcoming full-length album Natural, which is due out on May 12th.

“Isn’t Enough” is a sultry synthpop affair that calls back to early 2010s indie like Neon Indian, but possesses an R&B sensibility not dissimilar to Dua Lipa. Thematically, it’s a little less buoyant, born out of a holiday season spent at home, reeling from an intense breakup. Regardless, there’s room to dance, and with that, space to heal.

“The different characters I play are all fragments of Softee: the worker, the performer, and the person waiting for a date. They exist inside me and they’re all sharing the struggle of being in a relationship that is no longer sustainable.”

 

“This video was inspired by J. Lo’s iconic video for ‘Get Right.’ I loved her playing all these different characters interacting in a nightclub, and wanted to bring some of that campiness into our vision. In our video, though, the different characters I play are all fragments of Softee: the worker, the performer, and the person waiting for a date. They exist inside me and they’re all sharing the struggle of being in a relationship that is no longer sustainable.”
