Single Review: First Light 1

Auckland based emerging female singer / songwriter Ella Minehan has just dropped her third single First Light. A smooth RnB sounding track which has been described as an upbeat, flirty track about taking chances with relationships.

This is the third and final track in her three-track release which was part of final project for her Bachelor of Commercial Music at Massey.

Ella has an impressive vocal range, the perfect carrier for the rich RnB flavour she infuses into her music. A talented musician, she has been singing ever since she was three and writing music since the age of five.

First Light builds up nicely and flows along seamlessly in a flawless, harmonious fashion ending on a different wavelength. She has a seasoned musicians sound.

Inspired by artists such as Beyonce and Christina Aguilera, Ella Minehan has a soulful sound and a big voice. Making it through to the top 21 on NZ Pop Stars in 2021 with her strong impressive song writing skills, showed the world what a formidable up and coming musical artist she is becoming.

First Light is silky and smooth which highlights her stunning vocals and rich polished sound. Defiantly an artist to watch out for in the Pop/RnB realm.
