PREMIERE: SHAYNA sets a blistering pace on breakthrough new single Miles Away

Having spent two years spinning around New Zealand’s vastly talented songwriter circuit, today SHAYNA overhauls her artistry with new single Miles Away.

Trading in her singer/songwriter roots for a sound that’s commanding, pop-savvy and infinitely more powerful, Miles Away is a full-bodied hit ready to make waves.

Chart-ready and wrapped in her tightest production to date, Miles Away is a complete reinvention of rising New Zealand popstar SHAYNA.

In line with a streak of personal evolution, recent writing-focused years have seen SHAYNA embrace a streak of high-powered collaborations. Miles Away calls in the talents of co-writer M Basa (Aloe Blacc, Lucian) and producer Josh Fountain (Leisure, Theia, Kids In Space), lifting the tune to new cinematic heights.

Additionally a video directed by Shae Sterling accompanies SHAYNA’s latest, a spellbinding montage of stunning North Island landscapes.

Everything about Miles Away sets a blistering pace for SHAYNA, one which I predict she won’t be slowing down from anytime soon. She already projects the image of a star at the top of the game – if she continues as is, that’s exactly where she’ll end up.

With no gigs on the calendar and no music revealed for the near future, for now you’ll just have to keep spinning Miles Away. Something tells me you won’t mind that at all – and be comforted by the knowledge that an announcement like this always means there’s more to come.

Miles Away is out now.
