Te-Whanganui-a-Tara band NOVA have released their reflective and vibe-filled new single ‘Temple’, out today. ‘Temple’ is the third track to be released off their upcoming EP, out July 21.


Stacked synths and moments of ear candy fill the sonic space of ‘Temple’, with a hook-laden rhythm section woven in to create an all-encompassing, infectious groove. The vocals, performed by NOVA’s Bryn van Vliet and Eliza Pickard, oscillate between more staccato verses and expansive, layered choruses; the latter creating a poignant yet uplifting tone which leans into the meaning of the song.
