On their brand-new single ‘A Little Bit More’, Taupō pop-rock duo False Heights pack a real punch with a fierce punk-rock sound and catchy pop hooks. Due for release on Thursday 25th January, this is an anthem for those stubborn arguments in long-term relationships, “an ode to acting like you don’t care when in fact you do”.
Both working together musically and as real-world partners, Ashley and April Pirie opted for a unique songwriting method on ‘A Little Bit More’. Each representing their own perspectives when issues arise, they carefully avoided “cross-contaminating” by crafting individual verses, then coming together for a powerful shared chorus. This creates a melodramatic yet deeply honest interplay between the headspaces of each partner during a fallout.
False Heights produced the track alongside Evan Pope at Studio 11b, and mastered by Downbeat Mastering’s Josh Llewellyn. It builds upon the “warm and fuzzy… pop sensibility” of their previous 2022 EP ‘Too Afraid To Try’, which saw them open for acts like Pat Benatar and ZZ Top and blow the roof off Rhythm and Vines.
Following their recent single ‘Inside Your Head’ and a stellar set at Sanctuary Sounds music festival, this is a must-listen track that expands the wild, relatable world of False Heights. Out on streaming on the 25th January and available for pre-save and Bandcamp pre-order now, this song will, just as its title promises, have you fiending for ‘a little bit more’ from New Zealand’s coolest new act.
