Daughter of the cold, southern mountains, Holly Arrowsmith is pleased to announce the release of her new album A Dawn I Remember. The award-winning New Zealand singer songwriter also shares today, a captivating new song titled ‘Farewell’ with a picturesque music video filmed in Canterbury and directed by Brisbane based videographer Theresa Fryer.
Her new record is released thanks to the generous support of a Kickstarter that raised $24,678.
“This is my most honest yet,” she declares.
“The album was written over a very difficult but experientially rich time of life,” the young New Mexico-born singer songwriter tells us.
I still feel like I am recovering from the losses that ensued, and slowly finding ways to repurpose those spaces again.”
A self-written volume, A Dawn I Remember would slowly take shape over two years. The vast majority of the songs being written in New Zealand, though one was penned in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado (Slow Train Creek).
Finished off with widely acclaimed, award-winning engineer and producer Ben Edwards in the Sitting Room, the initial recordings happened in the small southern NZ town of Colac Bay with Steve Roberts and Tom Lynch.
A Dawn to Remember releases on Friday 22nd June. Keep your ears peeled.
