[Video] Nived – Shame (Stripped)
Back in May the artist Nived made his debut with the single “Shame” that caught our attention in a big way. Since then he has cooked up a little extra goodie for his new fans by way of a stripped version of the single that has come with a little video.
Nived takes center-stage with a mic and guitar. The original was pretty minimal in its composition, but in pulling back even further, we get an even chiller take on a hell of a record. It’s just the beginning for Nived and we can’t wait to see what comes next. For now, enjoy “Shame” in both it’s forms and add them to your Spotify playlists today!
