24-year-old independent artist Avya is earning her place in Aotearoa's music scene one song at a time. Avya's single "You Don't Get It" gained nationwide success, spending several weeks on the Hot NZ Singles Chart, while her previous track "Green" was featured on curated playlists by Spotify and Apple Music. Since placing fifth on TVNZ's Popstars, she has been a 3-time NZ On Air funding recipient, opened for artists like Jeremy Redmore and Georgia Lines, and expanded her catalogue of original material in collaboration with renowned songwriters and producers, including Joseph Faris, Noema Te Hau and Joel Jones. Avya's new 3-track EP, "She", is a deeply reflective exploration of relationships, generational patterns, and grief. The opening track, "My Love", sets the tone with its foot-stomping folk-pop energy, offering a message of self-worth wrapped in infectious hooks. The title track, "She", challenges harmful generational cycles, while "The Hurt Don't Sleep" closes the EP with a tender exploration of grief, leaving listeners with a raw and honest emotional resonance. @avyaririana on socials ❤️‍🩹
