Aotearoa Music Award and Taite Music Prize winning artist Vera Ellen announces her upcoming album ‘Heaven Knows What Time’ – out on vinyl and CD on May 1st via Flying Nun Records.
Three years on from her last full-length project, Ideal Home Noise; which was awarded the prestigious Taite Music Prize for 2023, Vera Ellen has found herself in a whirlwind of unconventionality - learning to embrace the chaos that comes with being a self-sustained artist in today’s constantly driving culture, and finding meaning and joy in community - all themes that inform her new body of work, Heaven Knows What Time.
Stepping away from the heavy inner-world of Ideal Home Noise, Heaven Knows What Time is less about thinking and more about just being — embracing the masks we wear, but also allowing ourselves to take them off and bare it all; the exhausted, the messy, the fear, the adventure, and all of the joy too.
‘Heaven Knows What Time’ is out May 1st via Flying Nun Records.
