New Zealand

New Zealand born and bred singer songwriter Phillipa ‘Pip’ Brown, better known to most as Ladyhawke, hasn’t had a solo release in half a decade (Wild Things, 2016), and it is fair to say that her fans have missed her compelling mix of pop, electronica and glam rock. To be fair, she’s been through a lot over the past couple of years, including getting married, moving back to New Zealand from LA, giving birth to her first child and, just a few months later, being diagnosed with melanoma. Now fully recovered and settled in Auckland, Brown has experienced the last year as a rebirth of sorts and this feeling shines through on her new album, Time Flies, which reflects her new-found sense of freedom and spontaneity.
