Nandi Rose aka Half Waif has unveiled her new single ‘Take Away The Ache’. The song follows her previously released tracks ‘Orange Blossoms’ and ‘Party’s Over’. Spacious in production, the cut is an emotive piece powered by beautiful keys, light drum work, sharp synth lines and decorative sound design. Creating a balance of experimental electronica and pop, ‘Take Away The Ache’ morphs into a cinematic offering, demonstrating Half Waif’s continual growth as an artist.

Half Waif has also shared a lyric video to ‘Take Away The Ache’, which you can check out down at the bottom. Enjoy.

Touching on the track, Half Waif said:

“This is a song about the paradoxes of loving. How we ask the impossible of each other, how we promise what we can’t give. But I don’t mean this cynically – I actually find it quite remarkable” says Nandi Rose. “It’s kind of an incredible feat of imagination and will, the way we help each other transform our darkest moments into something bearable, like a game of make-believe. ‘It’s not an ache,’ you might say, ‘it’s an ember.’ And so together we stay warm by the fire of what we’ve created, lit by a sweet lie that makes it all okay for a while. To love is to believe in a kind of magic.”
