Kesha Nevé is proving she just might be one of the Australian Idol winners who go the distance. Fresh from claiming the title earlier this year, she’s just released her second post-Idol single “Ain’t Right, Right Now.” She’s also taking her music to the masses with shows all around the country.
With its cool Ella Langley country vibe, “Ain’t Right, Right Now” is perfectly positioned to win hearts. Kesha penned the track, which acknowledges that love isn’t always enough to keep a relationship alive, with Joe Mungovan and Robby De Sa. The song resonates with Kesha, whose blooming career leaves little time for love.
“For me personally, chasing my dreams as a musician has led me to live a super busy and chaotic life,” she explained. “I live show to show, studio session to studio session, and don’t stay in one place for very long. As much as chasing my dreams is leading me to live the life I’ve always wanted to, it does create a space where it’s not as easy to settle down with someone. I’ve found myself in love but not being able to follow the life they are living or take them on the journey of mine. So, this song relays the story of longing to be with someone, but the timing not being right.”
