Eighteen-year-old Maty Noyes, who also featured on Kygo's Stay, has released her debut solo single In My Mind. It's a catchy, electronic-heavy dance-pop number along the lines of Selena Gomez and Hailee Steinfeld.
Auckland four-piece Openside have released their debut EP Push Back.
Their cyber-punk pop sound has gained them thousands of fans on Spotify and YouTube, they've opened for Twenty One Pilots live and are set to open for Ellie Goulding.
The six-tracker includes singles Branches and Letting It Out, which they performed on TV's Jono & Ben last week.
"This EP is like an introduction to Openside - who we are and what we're about. We've pretty much been working on these songs since we got together so it's really exciting to finally be able to share them," - says vocalist Possum Plows.
Revisit a classic
With a new release of tickets this week for Guns N Roses' New Zealand concerts, it's time to revisit some of their best music.
Use Your Illusion 1 & 2 were released 25 years ago this week.
Thirty songs over more than 150 minutes, everything about the albums was big.
Especially the stunning 9-minute epic November Rain.
Alongside admirable Dylan and Wings covers were modern classics including Don't Cry, You Could Be Mine, Yesterdays and the outstanding Civil War.
