KNOTTS loops in and out of art pop and indie soul. The band’s members consist of vocalist and multi-instrumentalist/vocalist Adalia Powell-Boehne, keyboardist Antoine Franklin, guitarist Jordan Wilson and drummer Isaiah Cook. Adalia possesses a truly one-of-a-kind plaintive voice, her songs are grounded with a strong sense of someone searching for her place in the world, that might sound like faint praise, but in a world full of show off vocal hysterics KNOTT’S songs feel intimate and real.
The Cincinnati Entertainment Award for Best New Artist has been given to KNOTTS, they’ve released music on Soul Step Record Label, and opened for artists such as Thundercat, Post Animal and Lucius. The band released their sophomore album Ribbon Dancer in 2023 followed by a US tour.
