'Make It Simple', the second single from Kirikiriroa songwriter Nicholas Joseph’s debut album Sailing is out August 20th via Sonorous Circle.

The sweetest and most pop-leaning of the album's eight tracks, 'Make It Simple' considers both the charm and weight of regional Aotearoa's vast landscape - the freedom of it, and the isolation. Musically, it veers into classic 90s guitar pop with a hushed vocal delivery.

"In this lonely country I'm just a riddle, a pheasant in the yard, but aren't we all now?," Joseph sings, capturing the strange, solitary beauty at the record's core.
