Wiri Donna – Dream Of Me: New Song Of The Day
Wiri Donna releases Dream of Me, the second single off her upcoming debut EP, Being Alone, due for release late May. As the weather cools, the new single is a sun soaked indie pop track which screams of Summer, allowing us to hold on to it for a little longer.
Here’s the blurb with Tour Dates!
‘Dream of Me’ follows on from the release of ‘No Follow Through’ in March this year, her 1st single in over two years, cementing her place as ‘one to watch’ as she delivered a Top 15 NZ single, and a #1 most played on the Alt Radio charts.
Alongside the highly anticipated new music is the announcement of her long awaited upcoming 6 date national release tour! The tour will feature her 4 piece live band including members Harrison Scholes (Arjuna Oakes, F.A.I.R.Y), James MacEwan (Arjuna Oakes), & Elliott Dawson (DOONS). The Tour kicks off in Wellington on June 10th before heading to Hamilton, Auckland, Christchurch, Dunedin & Queenstown in July.
It’s been two years since Wiri Donna’s first release – a double single featuring ‘Manuka Money’ and ‘Wandering Willies’. Wiri Donna began as a sensitive indie folk act that was rooted in a time of finding her feet. Now two years later after multiple tours and supporting heavy hitters such as The Beths, Mild Orange and Soaked Oats, she is breaking her stride with a larger and emphatic rock sound.
“‘The EP is a sort of coming of age record, less of things you learn as you’re growing up, more things that you discover when you’re alone. I’d like to think it strikes a balance between eternal optimism and pure devastation, a sentiment that people can either relate or sympathise with.”
‘Dream of Me’’ is out on April 29thth, and the stunning 6 track EP ‘Being Alone’ on the 27th May. ‘Being Alone’ 12” Vinyl is available for pre-order via Bandcamp here.
