Mel Parsons is quickly becoming a mainstay of Kiwi music.

The folk/country artist burst onto the scene back in 2009 - and has released four studio albums since then.

And she's enjoyed plenty of success including winning Best Folk Artist at the 2020 New Zealand Music Awards.

Now - she's back with her fifth studio album, Slow Burn which is out tomorrow.
