About

Alae Bio (Taken from their Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/alaeofficial/) - Comprised of multi-instrumentalists, Alex Farrell-Davey and Allister Meffan, and drummer, Jayden Lee, emerging New Zealand band Alae are poised to take their sophisticated brand of indie pop to the world. Coming together as a two piece in 2016, Alex and Allister delivered their folk-inspired sound throughout New Zealand, including their first single “All Gived Up.” With solo gigs and nationwide support slots for Hollie Smith and a sell-out Auckland show with Boston’s Lake Street Dive, Alae made a strong impact in only a few short months. The pair self-funded their self-titled, 6 song debut EP, which was recorded at Roundhead Studios and released in November 2016, along with 6 stunning music videos to accompany. The emotive duo then wrapped a stellar year with the addition of drummer Jayden Lee, performing as a full band and a fuller sound at the legendary NZ Rhythm & Vines Festival. In early 2017, Alae’s debut EP was nominated for the Best Independent Release for the prestigious Taite Music Prize. Refusing to rest on their laurels, Alae hit the road through February and March, taking their music throughout New Zealand, and on to Australia, where they played in support of their singles, “Things Change” and “From 1 to 3.” Both singles gained significant air play on New Zealand radio, while the videos were play-listed on Edge TV and MTV NZ & AU. Another successful New Zealand tour during August commanded sold out shows as well a follow-up trip to Australia in September. Alae wooed both audiences and industry giants with a performance at the prestigious Big Sound Festival and Conference.
