Auckland based music collective, The Human Kind have released their third single, Find My Way.

Listen HERE

Offering up a 70's soul-groove vibe, deep, smooth vocals and spoken word by Jason Slade, the lead vocal is answered by the rich earthy solo of Debbie Toko-Stevens, supported by the layered harmonies of Chrissy Diamond. Layered with acoustic guitar that creates a warm soulful blend, the single highlights the magic of a bass groove that gets your head nodding.

Find My Way is about finding a way out of whatever is hindering progress or growth, such as depression, PTSD, self doubt, laziness, etc,” says Jason Slade, lyricist.

“Basically it's about finding out why you're stuck, and figuring out what caused it by addressing it - accepting it - releasing it - and moving on.”

The track was produced and co-written by Frank Marinthe, Chrissy Diamond, Debbie Toko-Stevens, Jason Slade and Mitch French.

“It was challenging and fun discovering new ways of creating other than my normal style of writing and singing”, says Jason Slade - the lead vocalist on this track.

Released in conjunction with the single, is the video for Find My Way. The video follows the life of a struggling busker and portrays his emotional journey of being lost and hopeless to eventually finding value and appreciation, something we all seek for.

The new single, Find My Way follows on from The Huma Kind’s previous released singles,Walk To The River and Ready To Live with plenty more on the way from this group.

With a major focus on mental health at the core of The Human Kind, the group are also releasing their interview with former All Black, Slade McFarland who works with Mates in Construction.

“The interview with Slade from Mates in Construction highlights the incredible work they do in regards to providing mental health support for construction workers. The construction industry has the highest suicide rate of any industry in NZ which makes the cause so important,” says Chrissy Diamond, spokesperson for the group.

Made up of professional singers, musicians, photographers, designers and sound technicians from various cultures and gender identities, The Human Kind combines live music, songs and images in audio-visual events that express the spectrum of human emotions.

Find My Way is released just in time for the groups rescheduled debut show series, Solacium, kicking off in May with proceeds going to The Mental Health Foundation.
