Weightless by Miriam McCombe
Through four songs, Miriam explores the emotional turbulence of moving to New Zealand in 2019 and her eventual acceptance of the new world she found herself in.
Miriam: “I spent the first half of my 3 years in New Zealand writing this music, and the second half recording it. Whilst the music centres around loneliness and isolation, producing the EP itself has been a shared labour of love amongst friends."
