Nyassa Releases Strong Debut Single, “Ghost”

Few debuts are as confident as Nyassa’s first single “Ghost”. If she had any nerves recording this number, I can’t detect them. It’s a bold introduction to her talent, with catchy indie-pop hooks and effortless vocals that capture the joy she feels creating her music.

“Making music feels like being in love – you’re in another world, a beautiful one,” Nyassa gushed. “I want to make people feel something that they can’t explain… I naturally put a piece of my soul into my songs.”

Director Richy Sandham and cinematographer Nick Stevens translated Nyassa’s creative vision in the beautiful film clip, shot at South Australia’s Mintaro Maze and historic Martindale Hall (which you may recognise from the classic film Picnic at Hanging Rock).

Something tells me we’ll hear a lot more from Nyassa in the future.

Benny Walker Shows His Soul With “Ghost”

I haven’t heard any new music from Benny Walker in a couple of years. Back then he was impressing me with the bluesy rock of his album Through the Forest. Now he’s back with a new sound which will different is no less impressive. His latest single “Ghost” is a groovy, soulful number with silky smooth vocals and a powerful message.

Benny says “Ghost” is an “ode to all the greedy, power-hungry, shortsighted people trying to fuck up our world … this one’s for them.” He cowrote the track with ARIA award winning producer Jan Skubiszewski, who also helped produce Benny’s forthcoming six-track EP Undercover.

Before that drops, Benny will road-test his new material on his Wine, Women, & Soul tour. At intimate venues with Benny switching between the piano and guitar to bring his new songs to life, it’s bound to be something special.
