In 2019, [Temsu Clover](https://www.instagram.com/temsuclover/) knocked down the internet with a feather when she released her debut hit single *‘* *[Confessions of a Bipolar Mind](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eghMQ5aHlBE)* *’*, for which she was [awarded](https://www.thenortheasttoday.com/entertainment/events-in-your-city/here-are-the-winners-of-11th-music-awards-of-nagaland#:~:text=KOHIMA%20%7C%20Nov%2009%2C%202019%3A,fusion%2C%20Hindi%2C%20gospel%20etc.) the Best Upcoming Artiste at the 11th Music Awards of Nagaland. Temsukala Lemtur, more popularly known as Temsu Clover, is a singer/songwriter from Dimapur, [Nagaland](https://www.ticketfairy.com/word/?s=nagaland). She is already one of Nagaland’s distinguished Indie artists to look forward to!

Following the success of ‘*Confessions of a Bipolar Mind*’, Temsu collaborated with notable artists from India on *‘* [*Philophobia*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZHDaAiFsBE&list=PLMkovl5qeAbj8ASDFA98XA3-pV28LcXlb&index=1) *’* and *‘* [*Take My Time*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVHNcOwVP8E&list=PLMkovl5qeAbj8ASDFA98XA3-pV28LcXlb&index=2) *’* (A lockdown project) with various artists from Nagaland, regularly puts out several originals on [Soundcloud](https://soundcloud.com/user-722068972), and also freshly released her newest track [*‘Blue’*](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xSZ82ZKcPtQ) which has amassed nearly thirty thousand views! She is concurrently studying for a degree, in addition to creating enthralling music that resonates with her audience. The Ticket Fairy had a quick chat with Temsu Clover to talk over the exceptional feat in her musical career.

**THE TICKET FAIRY – How has your journey been from releasing** ***‘Confessions of a Bipolar Mind’*** **to** ***‘Blue’*** **? **

Till now, the experience is wild. I mean, people appreciating the art I am putting out means so much. And that motivates me to keep contributing to the arts!

**How did** ***‘Blue’*** **come about? Please share with us the response you got since releasing it.**

*‘Blue’* is really special to me for a lot of reasons. The lyrics and melody lines, they all came from a very personal space. And the people I met along the way because of this song. I got to meet and make really cool friends. From the videographers whose names are [Asemyouba](https://www.instagram.com/asemyoubajamir/?igshid=xzf6ai4snlav) and [Saiba](https://www.instagram.com/saionba.ksai/?igshid=1sfwsvfy47q4q) to the producer Vitz Zhimo who made it all happen. And yes, totally not forgetting about the musicians namely [Akok Pongener](https://www.instagram.com/akok_pongener/) , [Imti Imchen](https://www.instagram.com/imchen97/) , and [Imrong](https://www.instagram.com/imxrng/) without whom the song wouldn’t be here.

The response I got from the listeners were all positive and the DM’S I received from them really encouraged me to do more of what I do! That is to make music.

**The themes of mental health have been recurrent in both your releases, what message do you wish to get across from them?**

For me, I like to put out expressions for people in my writings who can’t do it themselves or are searching for something to find an escape. And that’s what I want my music to be for others. 

**You have talked about having a musically rich family background, how did that help shape your artistry?**

From classic rock songs to the old country blues, I would sway along with them in my undies as a kid (laughs). Growing up in that kind of environment, you just get attached to it you know. And one of the reasons why I love music not as a musician or a writer but as a listener first.

**How would you describe the music you create – are there artists/bands who influence your sound?**

This question is hard (laughs) because there are so many artists and bands I listen to and get inspiration from. But if I were to pick specifically, I would choose John Lennon and John Mayer. I love their writings!

**You recently collaborated with some of Nagaland’s best musicians on ‘** ***Take My Time*** **’, tell us how it all went about!**

That is one of my ‘It’ moments! I got to sing with some of Nagaland’s best musicians! And because of this, I got to learn and experience the things I haven’t known before. 

**You also did a cover of Beabadoobee’s ‘** ***Coffee*** **’ with COVER4K, how did it go?**

The production team of Cover4k is really cool! They have the best recording and videography team and we had a really fun time recording and shooting the Music Video. Been a great experience with this one as well.

**Upcoming projects in the pipeline? **

Yes, many projects are cooking! I can’t promise it’s coming anytime soon (laughs) but hopefully, I get to fulfill all of them and share more art with the world.
