Music News - ASHY returns with new pop smash 'LA Talk'
17 February 2023 - 0 Comments
New Zealand pop sensation ASHY returns with her infectious new single LA Talk. This fresh new track could easily be described as a slice of pop perfection. With truly engaging lyrical and melodic content, lusciously layered vocals and a bassline laced with funk influence, ASHY hails amongst chart toppers like Dua Lipa.
This artist has already clocked over 2 million streams across all platforms, enjoyed chart success & has worked with leading pop producers on both sides of the Tasman. ASHY has worked with the likes of producers Josh Fountain (BENEE), Ben Wylen (Selena Gomez, Ariana Grande), Liam Quinn (Peach PRC, Ruel, G-Flip, Illy, Rita Ora, Keith Urban) and Sam Trevethick (Shapeshifter).
In 2022, her single Mirror gained top spots on the Official NZ Music Chart and spent multiple weeks in the RadioScope Airplay charts. ASHY also featured on single Feel the High with award winning Dance Duo; Chores.
LA Talk is a timely single, shared with her audience before her travel to the USA as an Official Showcasing Artist at illustrious SXSW (South By SouthWest) in Austin, Texas followed by some time in LA.
ASHY describes this song as an ‘anecdote’ to her life as a young woman in the entertainment industry.
She says “I have many stories about my time in the industry and this song is a culmination of the types of people I’ve met and experiences that I have endured. LA Talk is a piece of my sense of humor, it’s sometimes best to take things lightly when things start turning into chaos.”
LA Talk was written in the artist's hometown of Christchurch in just one day with fellow co-writers; Sarena Close (Mousey) & Chris Wethey. It was then taken ‘over the ditch’ to Australia to her long time producer Liam Quinn in Sydney.
Speaking on the songwriting, ASHY says; “It was really great to get back to the basics of writing this song, the most important part is the lyrics/ story and getting that right. I also play electric guitar on this track which references my beginning as an artist, coming from a singer-songwriter background”.
This marks the start of a new wave of music from this artist, 2023 is set to solidify ASHY as an artist on track to be a household name.
