Hot on the heels of the Tui Award winning album Songs For Bubbas (2014) featuring the APRA winning Children’s Song Of The Year, Anika has turned her attention back to her never departing fan base with her fifth solo studio album Queen At The Table.
Queen At The Table was recorded at Auckland’s The Lab studio with producer Jol Mulholland (The Mots, Gasoline Cowboy, Fuce, Mullholland) taking on production duties, giving the album a synthy, electronic touch and as always, Anika shines on Queen At The Table with her soaring vocals, tender voice and personal lyrics.
‘Running’, the first single to be
released from the album is a bangin’ pop song, underpinned
by Moa’s songwriting strength and that undeniable voice.
Moa states, “It’s a bit of a break up song, about one of
my mates, Ureka Roa or something….”
Directed
by Sally Tran ‘Running’ was shot in
Auckland and directed simultaneously from New York - the
camera monitor points directly to the camera of an iPad
which delivers the images to the director in New York. There
is another Skype link set up on another laptop so the
director can talk directly to the Director of Photography
and crew. Clever eh?
Anika Moa will be touring the
new album in 2015 with co-producer Jol Mullholland. Watch
this space for dates.
