Overview.
"New York Tendaberry" is strongly influenced by Nyro's hometown, New York City.
Nyro sings of lovers and romances in a notably darker tone than on her previous album "Eli and the Thirteenth Confession".
Musically, "New York Tendaberry" is far more intimate than any other Nyro album. Multi-layered instrumentation is less than on previous efforts as some songs were built around her voice and piano, though the use of strings and classical instrumentation is notable.
