Fly My Pretties present ‘Nice N’ Easy’, the first taste of the upcoming deluxe version of their new album, Elemental. The stomping rocker is led by Ryan Prebble (The Nudge, The Black Seeds), the track sees Prebble’s distinctive gravely vocals and swampy guitar tones front and centre. ‘Nice N’ Easy’ is a welcome addition to the rockier side of the Fly My Pretties catalogue, sharing the same feeling as classics such as ‘Turnaround’ and ‘Let’s Roll’.

‘Nice N’ Easy’ is the first taste of the extended version of their latest album Elemental. Released earlier in 2025, the new album was described as “theatrical, skillfully arranged, spirited… with the FMP mark of quality”. The album reached Number 3 on the NZ Album Charts, and was followed by a series of capacity shows in Auckland and Christchurch. The album is a collection of songs dripping in soul and blues, performed by an all-star band and a collection of incredible vocalists. The extended version will feature a number of tracks not included on the initial release.

Known for their folk/singer-songwriter sound, Elemental sees Fly My Pretties taking their sound into an exciting new direction. While famous for their big band set up, this album is relatively stripped back, featuring only 11 musicians who appear on every track, giving a soulful groove across the album. Featuring vocalists RIIKI REID, AJA, Tawaz, Taylah, Louis TM, Barnaby Weir (The Black Seeds) and Laughton Kora, the band is anchored by a rhythm section of Iraia Whakamoe (The Nudge) and Aaron Stewart (Mel Parsons, T-Bone), and complemented by guitarist Ryan Prebble (The Nudge) and Nigel Patterson (The Black Seeds) on keys.
