Brooke Fraser is a 15x platinum selling artist and one of our favourite modern NZ artists here at LGC!

Ever since she broke into the music scene in 2003 with her first single 'Better', i've been hooked.

Later that year she released her debut pop album 'What to Do With Daylight' where it reached the number 1 spot in the New Zealand charts and managed to get its later singles 'Lifeline' and 'Arithmetic' (which i'm 80% sure I want as my wedding song when/if I get married...). Two years later she released another chart topper with her sophomore album 'Albertine' coming in at number 1 on the NZ Music charts, however this time her musical influence favoured the more pop/folk vibe, which produced singles like 'Deciphering Me' (which always makes me feel homesick) & 'Shadowfeet'. 

After a four year hiatus Fraser released 'Flags' which again charted at number 1 in NZ, again keeping with the pop folk vibe 'Flags' turned out hit singles (and featured in the summer promotion of TV2) 'Something in the Water' and 'Betty'.

Brooke has released her fourth studio album 'Brutal Romantic' (you go girl) where it was recorded in Kosten's West London studio.

Brutal Romantic is out in the UK today, so fellow English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish dwellers go pick up a copy and support NZ Music and a general all round great artist!

The thing that I love about Brooke Fraser, is her talent and passion, at heart she's just a girl from New Zealand who writes amazing pop/folk songs and you can tell she's in it for the music and not just for the fame.

We here at LGC wish nothing but the best for her and congratulate her on the announcement of her first child!

Check out below her new single 'Kings & Queens' & 'Deciphering Me'
