The announcement follows Oklou’s stunning Tiny Desk performance where Oklou played the marimba and piano alongside an eight-piece choir, as well as her cover story for Pitchfork, where journalist Anna Gaca traveled to Pau, France to reflect on her breakthrough year and artistic evolution.

Born Marylou Mayniel in rural western France, Oklou's musical foundation was built on classical piano and cello, before she fell in love with electronic production and began performing her first shows in Paris. Her 2020 mixtape Galore marked a creative breakthrough, blending introspective songwriting with futuristic sound design. Dazed praised Galore as, “sophisticated in its composition yet totally cutting edge in its sound.” With choke enough, Oklou has evolved into one of the most compelling voices in modern music—bridging intimacy and innovation with fearless emotional clarity.
