“Since releasing the EP Implied Elegance in 2015 and relocating to Chicago in 2016, NÆ has kept a diligent stride in her ongoing aesthetic investigations. Her sonic and visual inquiry offers penetrating comment into the metamorphosis of middle America.”
— The COMP Art & Design Magazine

Enter the captivating and clever world of NÆ, a Chicago-based synth pop and electronic artist. Her music satirizes the absurdities of American aspirational lifestyles – think unicorn parties, sugary coffee drinks, and sexting. NÆ’s debut album, Push Button Future, has been applauded as “a dance-pop confection with a biting edge, commenting on modern-day issues of consumerism, commercialism, and influencer culture,” by Scapi Magazine. Her sharp wit and humor are balanced with levity, imagination, and a cosmic effervescence.

Producer, mixing engineer, and multi-instrumentalist Ryan Black performs on stage with NÆ as Blizz, and is her core collaborator in the writing and recording process. Black’s production leans heavily into both his sound design experience and jazz influence.

Hot off the heels of their recent performances as a featured artists at the Sound & Vision Synth Series in Rochester, NY, The Performing Arts Series at University of Minnesota Morris, House of Vans Chicago, and The 150 Media Stream in Chicago, NÆ and Blizz are excited to release their full-length dark pop experimental album, Isolazen, on October 27th, 2023. NÆ is the persona of visual artist JaNae Contag.
