CHEWING ON BEST NEW ARTISTS: BO BURNHAM

by

Lenny Beer and Simon Glickman

If you were surprised by the success of the Imperial/Republic (via Ingrooves) soundtrack to Inside, the Netflix special by this comedian/performance artist/troubadour, you probably didn’t see the show. Burnham’s work distills the bizarre, unprecedented psychodynamics of the pandemic—and the interior solitude it has enforced—like nothing else. His songs are by turns hilarious, stirring and shattering, mixing indie rock, EDM, Broadway and countless other genres into a heady medicine. Inside marks the rise of a distinctive and important voice.
