Grimes launches new ‘WarNymph’ radio show

The producer’s new social media alter-ego is heading to the airwaves.

Grimes has launched a new radio show called ‘WarNymph Radio’.

The station comes via Apple Music’s Beats 1, and its first episode’s guest is Alexa Demie, star of hit HBO TV show ‘Euphoria’.

It’s not Grimes’ first foray into radio this month. At the start of March, Claire Boucher began a six-month BBC Radio 1 residency, playing tracks from the likes of Caroline Polachek, Aphex Twin and more.

The theme for the show was “weird science fiction and electronic music for babies”.

Grimes released her new album ‘Miss_Anthropocene’ last month.

A three-and-a-half-star DIY review of the album called it her “darkest album yet”.

“‘Miss Anthropocene’ is undoubtedly the singer’s darkest album yet, the result perhaps of a rollercoaster half-decade or maybe just of an artist who’s never really given two fucks about playing the radio-friendly commercial game.

“The girls are such a bore / The boys are such a bore,” she sneers on ‘My Name is Dark’. No-one, thankfully, could dare sling such an accusation at Grimes.”
