Welcome to Locals Only, the New Zealand music podcast where we talk Aotearoa’s finest musicians about the soundtracks of their lives. Joining me today is an artist who was raised by the white hot mud pools of Rotorua in a house filled by the sounds of Bob Dylan, Fleetwood Mac and more notably her music teaching father. She found early success in songwriting and set out on a journey of self discovery and moved to New York. But her time in the busy streets of the city that never sleeps left her without an answer to the burning question in her mind: who am I? So, she returned to Aotearoa and turned her artistry to the page, drawing stacks of self portraits. It was in these charcoal drawings that she saw an unraveling moving portrait that spoke not of who she is but instead how she feels. The feelings of which can be heard on her debut album self portrait of a woman unraveling. This week on Locals Only, Alayna!!
