Laraland: In the Morning
Laraland served her neo-soul jazz-pop sunny side up in her latest single, In the Morning, featuring Nama.
For her latest release, In the Morning, the Melbourne-based jazz-pop soulstress, Laraland collaborated with the equally sensational bassist and co-songwriter Nama and cooked up a sweetly intimate RnB musing on one-night love stories. It’s sunny side up all around.
The demurely eclectic feat of easy listening reflects Laraland’s expansive array of influences. From disco to pop, funk to indie rock, house to neo-soul, no sonic texture was left off the table in the connectable, unostentatious release, which sees the instrumentals uplift Laraland’s upraising jazz vocals even higher.
The single, which was recorded, produced, mixed and mastered by Laraland, carries appeal to fans of Melody Gardot, Amber Mark and Natalie Imbruglia while standing as a testament to the up and coming artist’s neo-soul nonconformity.
Laraland said: "In the Morning was written during another long lockdown in Melbourne in late 2021. It reminisces on the idea of being able to go out and meet new people at a bar, club or anywhere the night takes you. I am drawing on the idea that sometimes you form a connection with a stranger in a bar and want it to last longer than its bitter-sweet one-night expiry.”
