Jamie McDell - Ask Me Anything

Jamie McDell - Ask Me Anything

Hailing from Mangawhai and spending part of her childhood travelling the Mediterranean, you’d be hard pressed to find someone who understands summer better than Jamie McDell.

With a collection of number 1 singles to her name and winning Best Pop Album at the 2013 New Zealand Music Awards, Jamie is making waves on and off the beach, and her plans for this summer are sure to lead to her riding some even bigger ones.

The new single “Crash” from her forthcoming album was inspired by the story of a friend, and showcases a different side to her song writing. “The production is definitely more edgy than I was used to but it all began to work once the lyrics and melody for the chorus came out. That raw edginess is very much representative of what the song is about.” The track also showcases how Jamie is inspired by everything and anything around her, an influence at the heart of every song on her new album titled, Ask Me Anything.

Ask Me Anything is Jamie’s second album, due to be released in February. An eclectic and honest mix of songs, the album tells the stories of the new places, people, and situations she’s experienced. Ask Me Anything takes Jamie’s music to the next level, experimenting with different styles of production while remaining true to her acoustic guitar roots that are perfect for jamming to at the bach.
