Having cut her teeth playing in Wellington band
Two Lane Black Top, and Sydney act Teenager, Pip Brown’s incredible knack for a catchy pop hook coupled with an 80's rock chic ambiance was quickly noticed when she began releasing tracks online as Ladyhawke in 2008. She was signed to a major label, moved to the UK, and her eponymous solo debut album made her hot property across the UK, Australia, and New Zealand.
She toured relentlessly, and picked up multiple NZ Music Awards, ARIAs, and nominations for Brit Awards, MTV Awards, and NME Awards. Pip’s songwriting connected because it managed to be both aspirational and relatable. She seemed effortlessly cool and distinctive but also just like a best mate, and while her music and art beautifully conjure a bold and fantastical world, they also capture her genuine, personable nature.
Wild Things debuted in the Official New Zealand Top 40 Albums on 13 June 2016. It has been in the Top 40 Albums for two weeks with a highest position of #5. There are four albums by Ladyhawke in the Top 40 Albums with one reaching Number One.
