Ahead of the release of their new album, Elemental, Fly My Pretties release ‘Share Your Luv’, a track which features lead vocals from Wellington-based solo pop artist RIIKI REID. Performed alongside an 11-piece band, Fly My Pretties take the alternative/pop-sound of RIIKI REID with the live instrumentation bringing the track to life. 

Traditionally a solo artist, ‘Share Your Luv’ shows RIIKI REID recording for the first time with a full live band. The rhythm section of Iraia Whakamoe (The Nudge) and Aaron Stewart (Mel Parsons) keep the track chugging along, perfectly complimenting the backing vocal section of AJA and TAWAZ. Front and centre is the stunning vocals of RIIKI REID, her enigmatic presence felt with every line.

Set for release on May 16, Elemental sees Fly My Pretties exploring a range of fundamental human, spiritual and natural elements through waiata. The resulting project is a collection of songs dripping in soul and blues, performed by an all-star band and a collection of incredible vocalists. Written and recorded over one week at the world-class facilities of Wellington’s Massey University, the new album represents a step in an exciting new direction for Fly My Pretties, while still maintaining the unexpected nature fans have come to expect.

‘Share Your Luv’ also arrives on the heels of the announcement of a special series of live shows celebrating the album’s release. Auckland will be treated to three shows at the intimate confines of Q Theatre, including a matinee performance on the Saturday. Christchurch will see them return to their spiritual home in Ōtautahi of the Isaac Theatre Royal, a venue they helped re-open over 10 years ago. These will be the first shows in either city in nearly five years.
