"e;Diarist, novelist, satirist, lyricist beyond peer."e;. In Niche: A Memoir in Pastiche, Nick Currie, a.k.a. Momus, presents the story of his life, career, and conquests on the margins of multiple music and art scenes.Momus-named for the ancient Greek. Niche is a memoir in pastiche. One man’s life, six decades, 217 narrators, 105,000 words. 'A grand entertainment', Kirkus Review calls it, 'effortlessly blending pop culture and high culture.' Publishers Weekly says: 'This is that rare show-biz memoir that's both entertaining and a literary triumph.' Our experimental results indicate that seasonality provides a temporal niche for the recruitment of the ascidians; C. Intestinalis and S. Plicata recruited mostly in winter, whereas A. Sydneiensis and H. Momus recruited in summer. Niche: a memoir in pastiche by Momus. AKA Momus-named for the ancient Greek god of mockery, and described by The Guardian as 'the David Bowie of the art-pop. So says Graham Greene as filtered through Momus, the pseudonym of Scottish pop musician Nicholas Currie. Born in 1960, Momus has been writing and making music for decades, yet he isn’t particularly well known except perhaps among fans of Vampire Weekend.
Momus―named for the ancient Greek god of mockery, and described by The Guardian as 'the David Bowie of the art-pop underground'―has recorded over thirty albums for labels like 4AD and Creation, published half a dozen works of speculative fiction, and written articles for The New York Times, Wired, ArtForum, Frieze, and The Wire. An unknown band called Pulp once asked him to produce their next album. (He said no.) An unknown band called Of Montreal once invited him to go on tour with them. (He said no.) He's collaborated with fans Vampire Weekend and with the Magnetic Fields' Stephin Merrit. He's had an impression of his penis preserved by the notorious Cynthia Plaster Caster. Maybe you've heard of him. Probably you haven't. This is his story. Or, rather, stories.
Rather than one avuncular tell-all relayed in his own voice, Momus has structured the narrative of his life as a typically atypical mockery of the rock-bio oral history. Instead of using living witnesses, Momus assumes the voices of 217 dead authors and artists and forces them to speak for and about him. From these dramatic monologues―sometimes unreliable, often comical―there gradually emerges a picture of one eccentric star's life across three continents and in his own, remarkable, niche.
