Bailey Wiley shares unplugged video for 'Sugar'
/Bailey Wiley releases a stunning, stripped back and unplugged version of her new single ‘Sugar,’ shot in Auckland’s Cornwall Park with director Jordan Arts.
Bailey’s golden voice, dignified presence, and heartfelt song writing are the product of perseverance. Life held her to the fire, and in the heat of the moment, she came to terms with what really matters. These days, she’s walking with a different strut in her step, and her music is moving with a different type of bounce as well.
The unplugged video follows the release of the original track ‘SUGAR’ ft. MELODOWNZ which dropped in October via A Label Called Success and Sony Music New Zealand. ‘Sugar,’ a S.F.T produced bop featuring a guest rap from Avondale vibes man MELODOWNZ, is the first single from her new project.
Taking a break from the scene for the better half of 2018 and focusing on the people around her was an important step in Bailey gaining a fresh approach and inspiring her song writing, “I feel like we can get so desensitised by life, the media and certain relationships that we can forget what we are truly craving. I needed a safe place, so I created one in ‘Sugar.’ Sugar is about devotion, reciprocation and compromise. It's also about leaning into your vulnerabilities, embracing the unknown and trusting that intuition is your most powerful weapon.”
