Natalie Bergman has finally unveiled her highly anticipated new album ‘My Home Is Not in This World’, which marks a significant departure from the themes of loss and death that dominated her previous work. The Chicago-based musician and producer has been steadily creating music since she was 16 years old, alongside her brother Elliot Bergman through various projects including Nomo and Wild Belle, whose three albums delved into love and heartache inspired by their hometown.
The album’s first song was inspired by a loss of identity that Natalie experienced after the birth of her child. In an interview with Billboard, Natalie revealed that she had to re-discover who she was as an artist following motherhood. She expressed her gratitude towards her husband for supporting her newfound role as a mother and partner.
Natalie has been open about using her life experiences to create music that inspires others. Her latest album is no exception. The record explores themes of hope, gratitude, and empowerment, with Natalie explaining that she aimed to celebrate her new life and the beauty it brought to her world.
It’s clear that Natalie’s perspective on motherhood has had a profound impact on her artistic direction, as she expressed her desire to balance being a mother and an artist. She believes that it’s crucial for artists to be authentic in their work and acknowledges that this album is the culmination of her journey towards self-discovery.
For ‘My Home Is Not In This World’, Natalie collaborated with her brother Elliot Bergman on production duties, which provided her with a deeper sense of connection. The siblings’ partnership allowed them to create an atmosphere where they could find solace in the music, which in turn fueled their creativity and the growth of their craft.
The album features songs that celebrate the beauty of life, love and acceptance, showcasing Bergman’s unique blend of soul, gospel, and pop sensibilities.
