ALBUM OUT NOW
LISTEN HERE / BUY ON VINYL & CD

Tāmaki Makaurau/Auckland band Corrella return with their new album, Skeletons. The 11-track collection combines the sounds of South Pacific-inspired roots/reggae, with touches of soul, funk, gospel, pop, and even a bit of country. Overall, it's an album that sounds like two things - summer and Corrella.

Skeletons comes as the band continue to establish themselves on the New Zealand and Australian music scenes. Named after the street at the naval base where the band first began, 2023 saw Corrella announce their arrival with their debut album Road From 26. The album featured the sleeper hit ‘Blue Eyed Māori’, a track which now holds the record for most weeks ever spent at Number One on the NZ Singles Chart. Since the album’s release, the band have sold-out shows across the country, become a staple on the festival circuit, and won multiple Aotearoa Music Awards & Waiata Maori Music Awards.

Described as “a full representation of Corrella”, Skeletons is a collection of tracks that have come together over the past year. The album takes a journey through sounds across each track, punctuated by the three-headed lead vocal attack of siblings Pipiwharauroa and Ngawaiwera Campbell, and rhythm guitarist Te Naawe Tupe. A constant throughout the album is their soulful harmonies creating the summery sound Corrella are fast becoming known for. 

Skeletons presents a band growing in confidence and strength in their songwriting abilities, but still pushing their sound forward. It is an album which has plenty in there for existing fans, while opening the door for newcomers. It’s an album which brings together many influences, ideas and sounds, but maintains the Corrella sound as a constant throughout.
