INTERVIEW: Nectarine Girl WVAU: Thanks for being here! Where does the name “Nectarine Girl” come from?

NECTARINE GIRL: It’s kind of a long story. In the summer of 2018, for a two week period of my life, I became obsessed, like hyper-fixated on nectarines. I actually, for two weeks straight, did not eat anything else. Breakfast lunch and dinner, I had nectarines. I was 16 or 17, and I was like, “I’m gonna change my Instagram handle to Nectarine Girl because I’m obsessed with nectarines.” I had released a bunch of music at that point and was doing musician stuff, but in 2020 I wanted to wipe everything I had done and start over. I already had this name from Instagram, and I was looking to inject a bit more meaning into it. So I looked into the genetic history and farming of nectarines and found out that nectarines are actually peaches, but they have a recessive trait that makes them not have the fuzz. Not having that fuzz actually makes them a lot more susceptible to disease, changes in weather, lack or surplus of sunlight, but it also makes them a lot sweeter.

So they don’t have that fuzz that protects them from the elements, but in that defect they are also a lot juicier, a lot sweeter, a lot more pleasant to eat. Nectarine Girl kind of became this metaphor for sweet, sensitive girl.
