Jordyn with a Why, releases her latest bilingual single ‘Hey Love’ featuring MOHI.
The single was funded by Te Māngai Pāho as part of the ‘Waiata Takitahi’ initiative and is a part of Waiata Anthem’s Matariki release.
Jordyn says the song is an 80s reclamation ballad.
“Hey Love gives words to the calling I could feel to reclaiming my reo Māori.
It’s written from the perspective of our tūpuna and acknowledges the difficulties of reclaiming at the same time as offering hope.”
The release of ‘Hey Love’ marks Jordyn’s 5th release of original music. The emerging artist is a finalist for both 2023 Pacific Music Awards Auckland Council Best Pacific Female Artist and the 2023 APRA Maioha Award.
