Music News - Upcoming Debut Solo Album by Pōneke's Ebony Lamb - Featuring Bic Runga & Kody Neilson
17 August 2023 - 0 Comments
Pōneke/Wellington-based singer-songwriter Ebony Lamb announces her debut self-titled solo album,
releasing on October 20th on Slow Time Records (Nadia Reid). The album was made in collaboration with two of New Zealand’s most celebrated modern musicians, Bic Runga and Kody Nielson (Opossom, Silicon,
UMO), along with her long-time musical collaborator, Gram Antler. To mark the release, Ebony and her band will embark on a seven-date Aotearoa tour starting October 27th. Tickets available at Banishedmusic.com.
Today, her third single Salt, Sand Sea’ is out now, pulsating with a raw, elemental energy that moves
between tight sonic spaces and sparse open vistas. Ebony’s delicately soaring vocals create a captivating contrast against persistent rhythmic tension, making it a surefire hit for live shows. “It evokes ideas and values that carry a similar weight to the natural world,”
says Lamb. “The line “Give me some more” is about wanting depth of character. While we sway about in popular culture, the elements - the salt, the sand, the sea - remain steadfast.”
Directed by Studio Elga, the accompanying
video leans into Ebony's photographic prowess. Shot on location in Muritai and Pariwhero/Red Rocks in Poneke/Wellington, the video is a dynamic performance of portraiture, with the splendour of nature showcasing her talented touring band - Hikurangi Schaverien-Kaa (Dawn Dyver, French for Rabbits) and Phoebe Johnson (Revulva, Dateline).
