Ny Oh played keyboards, guitar and theremin in Harry Styles’s touring band for 22 months until July 2023, and helmed her own band Neon Gru. But British-born Ny Oh – Naomi Ludlow – grew up in Tauranga.

She moved to London at 17, attended the Institute of Contemporary Music, and began her solo career after busking, backpacking and joining bands.

She recorded Without in 2018, Neon Gru’s I Am a Bird EP in 2021, then Ny Oh’s Garden of Eden (2022).
