TAKEN FROM HER UPCOMING SELF-TITLED ALBUM
OUT 20TH OCTOBER ON SLOW TIME RECORDS (NADIA REID'S LABEL)

Pōneke/Wellington-based singer-songwriter Ebony Lamb shares her latest single ‘Drive Me Around’ from her upcoming debut self titled solo album, due for release on October 20th, through Nadia Reid's boutique record label - Slow Time Records.

‘Drive Me Around’, is an ode to friendship and the unvarnished realities, positive and negative, of living and working as an artist. Lounging against a spare marching drum rhythm, cinematic guitars and a haunting Mellotron flute, Ebony sings in a sultry and nostalgic style, remembering teenage years spent driving through Hawkes Bay with a dear, old friend and the highs and lows of the creative life.

Ebony reflects, “I'm thinking about one of my oldest best friends. We grew up together in Hawkes Bay, and he really looked out for me in my formative years, driving us all over the place, spending time together, experimenting, and experiencing life. We don't see each other anymore, but I still think about him that way.”

The accompanying music video, directed by Shyam Patel and Jacob Munro, visually captures Ebony’s emotions through a series of physically expressive black-and-white scenes set in Wellington’s central business district. Locations include the brutalist architecture of Te Puna Mātauranga o Aotearoa - The National Library of New Zealand, the Woodward Street pedestrian tunnel, and the Aurora Terrace Motorway overbridge.

Once again played and produced by Bic Runga and Kody Nielson, two of New Zealand’s finest modern musicians, ‘Drive Me Around’ points toward Ebony Lamb’s forthcoming self-titled debut solo album.
