Nashville singer/songwriter Madds Buckley has released her new album A Simple Binary and a Complex Phrase via Nettwerk. An indie-Pop album that “explores the isolation and burnout of the digital age”. The album argues for “real, tactile human connection.”
With A Simple Binary and a Complex Phrase, Buckley widens her sound and themes. It’s an album “written for those feeling disillusioned with a world that seems willing to cede more and more humanity to technology, and a call to action for those eager to resist.”
Buckley anchores her album production in real instruments and acoustic song structures.
Buckley comments:
I think if my music can inspire people to keep making art, that’s good enough for me. If writing a song makes someone want to draw a picture or make an edit of something, or write a short story or even their own song, that’s a win in my book. Being able to play music with people—it’s this really beautiful moment where everyone is connecting over this one piece of art.
To celebrate the album’s release, Buckley will launch her most extensive headline tour to date, starting with a hometown show in Nashville on October 27 and taking her across North America through February 7, 2027 in Austin.
