Hip-Hop Artist Will McClean to drop single ‘Find My Way’ ahead of upcoming EP ‘Walking The Walk’
Backing up the success with his debut album Don’t Forget To Breathe, Will McClean is on the move with the release of his new single Find My Way today. This is the first track off of his upcoming EP Walking The Walk, establishing the new launch point for his jump to the top of Aotearoa’s hip-hop scene.
Speaking on his earliest influences and the establishment of his artistry, Find My Way pays homage to where Will has been and where he’s heading. Underlaid by a sample, string-rich beat and delivered with unapologetic Kiwi flair, Will takes us on this heavy journey gracefully, bringing us along to hear how the story progresses. Youthful but wise beyond his years, the sound of McClean is characterised by jazzy saxophone melodies, fluid basslines and lyrics that dive into the depths of vulnerability, allowing a cathartic experience for his listeners. Creating music packed with perspective, McClean is a vessel leading the way for young kiwis to self-identify and follow on their own journeys.
“For fans of Tom Scott’s Home Brew and The Streets” – The 13th Floor
Will McClean has shared the stage with some of Aotearoa’s top homegrown artists such as Summer Thieves, Che Fu, Troy Kingi and Fat Freddy’s Drop.

Following a four month stay in London and Europe, Will’s debut show back in Aotearoa is none other than opening for chief influence Home Brew, allowing him to share the stage with one of the most important voices in both his career and Aotearoa hip-hop as a whole.
