Brooke Farser has been an absolute hero of mine since I was a sweet wee 14 year-old singing along to her first album What to do with Daylight. I love and admire the way she has become a household name in New Zealand without compromising who she is and what she stands for. Her new (self-produced) album Flags is fantastic, as expected. Flags has a different sound to her past albums, while still keeping a distinct 'Brooke Fraser' feel. From catchy blue grass numbers like the first single and opening track Something in the Water to beautiful ballads, it's an album I can't stop listening to.
Betty, the second single from Flags, is one of my personal favourites. Check out the adorable video!
