“Did it say ‘storm is in the area?’” Rachel Chinouriri asked after settling into a tent on the grounds at Gov Ball. The English musician was still getting the hang of the ever-changing nature of New York summer weather — which this past weekend included a fair share of flash storms — but was in high spirits nonetheless. Her Gov Ball summary thus far? “Sweating. Nip slips. Storms. Jumping and screaming,” the 27-year-old singer-songwriter said. “I think that’s a good summary. Which is a huge success.” Rachel Chinouriri Ryan Williams/WWD Chinouriri began releasing music in 2018 and has been steadily rising since then, breaking into the U.S. market with songs like “All I Ever Asked” and “Never Needed Me,” which featured her friend Florence Pugh in the music video. She is set to open for Gracie Abrams’ upcoming tour over her North American dates. Chinouriri was in New York for the music festival over the weekend between shows at All Things Go and Bonnaroo, but was keeping her summer schedule relatively festival-light so she can focus on her upcoming album. “I think continuation is a good word,” she said of her new songs. “I feel like it sounds like me but sounds different, but not too different.
