13th Floor New Song Of The Day: Hannah May – Lay Me Down

Its new music Friday and here’s a new track from Kiwi up-and-comer Hannah May.

The song is Lay Me Down and here’s the record company blurb with more info on Hannah:

Rising Kiwi cross over artist Hannah May releases her fourth solo pop country single ‘Lay Me Down’. Written solely by May and produced by Brisbane’s own Aria Nominated music producer, Stuart Stuart of Analog Heart Records (The Veronicas, Sheppard, Dean Lewis), the track debuts a mature theme of passion and playfulness in a romantic relationship and shows off May’s strong yet smooth vocal style. With strong pop production influence and suggestive lyrics, May is creating her own unique genre somewhere in between commercial pop and country.

Hannah May had her start in 2015 where she and her former duo partner Abby Christodoulou from Mae Valley placed 7th on the hit TV series The X Factor NZ after being put together on the show. The pair released 3 hit country singles and an EP through SONY NZ following it up with a national headlining tour. Mae Valley opened for artists such as KELSEA BALLERINI, KEITH URBAN and CARRIE UNDERWOOD and performed to a crowd of 10,000 at Wellington NZ’s Westpac Stadium. Now a solo artist, Hannah has released three singles ‘Finally‘, ‘Passenger Seat‘ and ‘Pretty Girl‘ and has racked up over 100k Spotify streams as a completely independent artist. With the music industry taking a hit, 2020 has been a year of perseverance with the release of music and being named a top 10 grand finalist in the prestigious Toyota Star Maker Competition held in Tamworth, NSW in January.
