Slow Burn (Vinyl LP, Silver)

In the 1980s, Betty‑Anne Hall helped define a different Aotearoa musical language, one rooted in soul‑funk, Pacific rhythms and lived community experience. She was the voice of Ardijah, a warm, rhythmic alternative to the prevailing Dunedin‑sound narrative and now four decades on from those early hits, Betty‑Anne enters a new chapter with their solo debut. Created alongside whānau and close friends, Slow Burn is a quiet cultural moment: the return of an artist whose work helped shape South Auckland’s sound. - Flying Out

Singer-songwriter Betty-Anne Hall (Ngāpuhi, Ngāti Whātua, Ngāti Ranginui, Ngāi Te Rangi, Tainui, Ngāti Tūwharetoa) is marking a new chapter with the release of her highly anticipated debut solo album, 'Slow Burn'.

Created alongside whānau and friends, 'Slow Burn' explores themes of healing, resilience, love and hope, drawing on life experiences and the wisdom of those around her.

Including singles 'You Remain' and its te reo Māori counterpart 'Pūmau Tonu Koe', Betty-Anne invites listeners to fly with her as she embarks on her new journey. The album is released alongside the title track 'Slow Burn', which Betty-Anne says tells the story of a burning of a past love that lingers.
