Grayson Gilmour drops new song 'Day Moon'.

Wellington-based Grayson Gilmour has dropped his new track, 'Day Moon' - featuring Sandu Ndu, with backing vocals from Lontalius.

On the inspiration for the song, Gilmour shares: “I love the duality of seeing the moon during the day – natural, yet strangely out of context – beautiful, but gloomy at the same time.

Introducing: Haley Blais and her sophomore album 'Wisecrack'.

The Canadian singer-songwriter Haley Blais released her debut album 'Below The Salt' back in August of 2020. Her follow-up sophomore album 'Wisecrack' is out this week featuring singles, 'The Cabin' and 'Baby Teeth (one of our favourite songs of the year so far)'.
