Standing at the forefront of New Zealand's next-wave pop vanguard, Cassie Henderson unveils The Yellow Chapter EP, a raw exploration of the tumultuous space between heartache and healing.
Available now, this five-track EP marks the midpoint of The Chronicles of a Heart Broken trilogy, diving deep into the chaotic struggle of trying to feel something—anything—amidst a desolate wreckage of the heart.
The EP's unstoppable lead single Seconds To Midnight (11:59) continues to dominate the New Zealand airwaves, holding its #1 position for an extraordinary nine consecutive weeks while maintaining its grip on the Shazam NZ top 10. Its pulsing 80's synths and New Year's Eve betrayal story struck a nerve that shows no signs of healing. lemonade followed, trading late-night synths for blues-rock swagger, turning the messy cycle of returning to an ex into an irresistible dance floor confession.
The latest single Admit To That delivers an anthemic rock gut-punch, with soul crushing lyrics, driving guitars and powerful vocal delivery. Charging out the gates, the frenetic, pop-punk influenced DIE For You captures the perfect culmination of desperation and betrayal. The collection closes with an intimate piano rendition of ‘complacent’, stripping away everything but Henderson's arresting vocals and the weight of the words.
Long-time collaborator and producer Joe Faris returns to craft each track's distinct sonic world, with an all-star mastering team of Chris Gehringer, Calbi/Fallone, and Idania Valencia bringing these stories into sharp focus.Henderson brings this new era to life on November 13, kicking off her Seconds To Midnight nationwide tour. Summer will find her commanding main stages at Rhythm & Vines, Rhythm & Alps, and Homegrown, where these intimate confessions transform into full-throated crowd moments.
The Yellow Chapter is available to stream on all platforms now.
