NZ Dynamic Folk Troubadour Graeme James Releases New EP 'Field Notes on an Endless Day'

30 July 2021 - 0 Comments

Today, internationally acclaimed folk artist and multi-instrumentalist Graeme James releases his new EP, Field Notes on an Endless Day on Canadian label Nettwerk. With sold-out shows across New Zealand and over 40 million streams on Spotify, James is one of New Zealand’s most streamed indie-folk artists.

Celebrating the release on a whistle-stop nationwide tour, James has been on the road since June dodging snap lockdowns and wild winter weather. His Wellington show earlier this month was rescheduled due to flooding at local music venue Meow. It will now take place on Saturday August 14th at Meow, see full tour dates below. 

James, who spent years busking the Capital's city streets, says he was "unbelievably gutted" but adding, "nothing quite like 140km winds and torrential rain to make you feel like home". 

Meow owner, Rahine O'Rielly estimates about 20,000 litres of water came through the building over the weekend with her staff rallying together to clean up the damage. "It’s really hard, we're in a time of cancelling shows with Covid. It has a big financial impact on us and there's a loss of income for the artists too," says O'Rielly. 

Returning to New Zealand after a two-year stint in Europe, James is delighted to be back in New Zealand to reconnect with fans and share new songs and stories. His new Field Notes on an Endless Day EP is the final installment of a four-part EP series about the seasons.

James shares: "Field Notes on an Endless day explores the timelessness of summer.  As the flirtations of Spring ripen into the romance of summer, life takes on an endless quality. It is a season of abundance, fulfillment and joy, where the days blend into one another and life stands still under the slow summer sun."

Early praise for Field Notes on An Endless Day EP: 

"It’s the summer we all dream of escaping to once more in the not too distant future, and as such this EP is a beacon of hope and the perfect way to end this stunning series of evergreen tracks." - Elsewhere

"The songs are exquisitely arranged, with lush instrumental background anchored by fiddle and acoustic guitar achingly well picked. Could be the finest NZ musician I’d never heard of before now..." Muzic.net.nz
