Valkyrie, a music duo hailing from New Zealand, have unveiled their new single, ‘Yaddy Ya’. With great early success in their homeland already, including chart appearances and high-profile festival slots, they’re looking to keep the momentum going with ‘Yaddy Ya’.
The pulsating track highlights the core values of the group and what makes them stand out – infectious toplines, high energy, fun and plenty of replay value. Speaking about the concept of the song, Valkyrie say, “‘Yaddy Ya’ speaks to the energy around not caring about other people’s opinions of what makes you, you… so basically it’s the art of not giving a fuck.”
“‘Yaddy Ya’ started on a 5-string guitar. It was a late-night mate challenge to make a pop song with a missing string and it bloody became exactly that. At first the song was called ‘007’ because it sounded like a female James Bond type of song. We kept that initial feeling of having ‘a license to kill’ hence ‘Yaddy Ya’”.
With their edgy alternative-pop sound and unique style, it’s not hard to see why Valkyrie have had success in New Zealand, and it’s surely only a matter of time before that success is matched on the international stage since their music seems to get better with each release and their audience continues to grow. It will be exciting to watch their journey over the next year and see where they go next as more music is unveiled. In the meantime, ‘Yaddy Ya’ is out to buy/stream everywhere now: https://valkyrienz.lnk.to/yaddyya
