Wellington Te Whanganui a Tara artist Cammy is excited to share the news that his fourth single 'Band-Aid', featuring Will McClean is out today. Picking up great feedback on both sides of the Tasman, you can listen here.

As we head into Daylight Saving this weekend, summer vibes are established from the first beat. The track combines a Motown-esque feel with horns, and cunning cadences, held down by a live groove.

Band-Aid depicts a story of a complicated romance. It's a feel-good but bittersweet track, and through Cammy's lens it's a reminder that every cloud has a silver lining, while Will McClean’s storytelling mixes up the flow.

Will McClean is a hip hop artist also from Wellington Te Whanganui a Tara who loves the storytelling aspects of music; he and his band The Zooks have appeared regularly on Radio Active.

Cammy says, “Me and Will are childhood mates, raised in the same hometown. We’ve both been coming up on this music grind together. It feels so full circle to finally share this one with the world.:"

“I was inspired by something Pharrell Williams said on a podcast. “Chords are co-ordinance.” This means chords take you places emotionally. In the final month of production, I changed the voicings of the chords in the wobbly synth to feel more sombre. This edit flipped the emotion that was evoked into a more saudade realm.”
