PRESS RELEASE:
MADEIRA BRINGS BAD HUMOURS EP TO NZ FOR THREE SHOWS
As an artist, graphic designer and musician, multi-hyphenate Kim Pflaum has many arrows to her quiver. As MADEIRA, the former Yumi Zouma member has unveiled a new alter-ego reveling in elevated synth-pop while tackling heartache and betrayal on her new EP Bad Humours.
Out now on esteemed Carpark Records and Flying Out, the EP showcases Pflaum’s latest output, following on from where collaborations with Boycrush, Brett and Cyril Hahn left off. And she’s not holding back. These are songs of growth and change, of letting go, meanwhile exploring the artifice of performance.
Gauzy first single "Come On Thru" received acclaim from the likes of The Fader, Nylon, and Stereogum, who called the record "a rewarding listen... facing raw human emotions head-on rather than disappearing into the clouds." A brand-new grooving remix of the track by DC dream-pop outfit Brett was just released in celebration of MADEIRA’s recent New York performance. DC dream pop outfit Brett.
After stellar shows in LA, DC, San Francisco and New York, MADEIRA is gearing up to return to NZ to reveal the new tracks to her burgeoning audience here at home. Thanks to Eyegum and undertheradar.co.nz, MADEIRA hits the shores of Aotearoa for three dates in November. See below for details, and save the dates - MADEIRA promises an enchanting show not to be missed.
