New Zealand’s answer to the next upcoming pop musician, Laura. has recently released her newest hit, Safety in Numbers, nearly three years since rolling out her debut EP in September 2019.
Laura. has been doing the rounds as of late, paving her career and recently landing herself at number 7 on the Official NZ Hot Singles Chart with Safety in Numbers which you can completely understand how she is so high on the charts with this little pop number that will have you dancing around your house with your headphones on full blast. It has this mellow, delightful feeling to it, a sort of safe space, if you will.
Safety in Numbers will break any ice around your heart as it is spectacularly curated, with a sweet, upbeat psyche to it, lending you an uplifting few minutes of Laura.’s incredibly bubbly persona.
Safety in Numbers has a small sense of There’s A Tuesday vibes to it, especially at the very start of the song, where the drum cymbal is the focus on ringing in the infectiousness of the track.
My favourite line is “But I guess they’re right though, what they say about time flies, because it’s always the blink of an eye…”
Having worked for the past seven years in order to perfect her sound, Laura. is finding that she is gaining traction with Safety in Numbers, reaching over 19k plays so far, with the song being out less than two weeks. This is quite an impressive effort, signalling Laura. is doing something right to excel her noticeability within her career.
Laura. brings about more than just pop sounds - having studied abroad for 5 years, Laura. brings home her musical abilities in terms of also being able to tune into her folk/indie side when needed. Interchanging genres is always an exciting ball game for listeners and greatly appreciate here at Welcome to the Gig.
Safety in Numbers is a soul-soothing piece of art which all comes down to Laura. and her impeccable vocal range, allowing you to sit back and diminish any troubles that may be hanging over your head.
