Music News - New Single For Manzo

New Single For Manzo

29 July 2019 - 0 Comments

Releasing 2 August, the title Streaming Blues sums up the theme of this latest single from Kapiti songwriter & producer Alan Hodgetts and the recently released EP Beatniks on Toast.

With a bright, confident and sassy vocal by Andrea Coulston, the song speaks to the listener about the almost insurmountable challenges facing independent artists. Not just the measly rewards from streaming, but the ease at which an album track that has taken months or years to create and release, can be dismissed with a single ‘swipe’ on a mobile phone.

Make no mistake, this song is optimistic as Manzo celebrates the never give up attitude of his indie peers.

‘My sincere hope is that indie artists will stop walking on eggshells in their dealings with the music industry establishment,  put on a pair of Docs and start stomping’ – Alan Hodgetts

The song received huge applause when it was performed at Manzo’s live album launch on 27 July.

I’m one of millions trying to catch your eye

It’s hard to make a living so why do I try?

I’m doing it for love, having me some fun

But one day who knows I maybe number one

So when you buy my record a request from me to you

Don’t swipe  the tracks just play the album through
