Wiri Donna – Being Alone (Vinyl)

Wiri DonnaakaBianca Baileyis back after a two year breather between official releases with the Te Whanganui-a-Tara songwriter’s forthcoming debut EPBeing Alone. Signalling a new evolution for the rising artist,Wiri Donna’scrunchy and catchy jangle-pop anthem has received a resplendent visual treatment from the mega-productiveSports Teamcrew. An eerily accurate portrayal of a solo artist bouncing around musical ideas at home, the clip captures apartment jams with home-crafted bandmates (whose style reminds me of early ’00sProvidence noise bands), veering off into wilder territory as the evening progresses. Recorded withJames Goldsmith.
