Velvet Negroni has been played on NTS shows including Imran, with First Time first played on 13 September 2018.

Velvet Negroni is the alter-ego of creative polymath Jeremy Nutzman. Raised in an outer suburb of the Twin Cities (USA), Jeremy - a black kid adopted into a white evangelical Christian family - split his formative years between classical piano lessons and late night jam sessions. A duality that permeates every corner of his music, thriving in the borderlands between indie rock and R&B.
