This July, Ōtepoti's Keira Wallace will be travelling to Tāmaki Makaurau to mark their sixth single release, Leap/Landing.With an increasingly folk-influenced sound, 17-year-old singer/songwriter Keira Wallace curates unexpected lyrics and intricate chord voicings. Their reflections run deep through each song, shining a light on significant moments entangled with immense feelings, and resonating with warmth and cocooning vulnerability.
This single was created at SongHubs Ōtepoti in November 2022, in only 7 hours. With Keira as lead songwriter, co-writers Calla Knudson (Calla) and TJ Zimba (ZËxÏÏ), and producer Abigail Knudson (MISSY) also contributed their musical expertise to bring this expansive song to life. Leap/Landing encourages understanding that to experience the peaks of life to their full, we must endure the lows. The song tackles a fear of positive feelings when eventually, they all come to an end. Despite how these struggles can narrow our field of vision, support can be found in the people around us - people who will follow our leap and cushion every descent.
Joining the show will be classical pop artist Calla with her operatic vocals, entrancing violin and piano, and powerful bass.
