Following the success of her jazzy debut Money Bag<\/em>, T\u0101maki Makaurau-based indie rock artist Evie Bamford returns with Through The Day<\/em>, a rich and introspective new single releasing on Tuesday 17 March, 2026.<\/p>\n

Self-produced and lush with layered instrumentation, the track weaves cello (Gemma Henderson), clarinet and vocal harmonies (Evie, James MacEwan) into an expansive, warm soundscape that reflects Evie\u2019s classical roots.<\/p>\n

Mixed by Tom Broome and mastered by Josh Llewellyn (Downbeat Mastering), the single also features Jeremy Richardson (drums), Rory Johns (keyboard) and Hugo Butler (bass).<\/p>\n

Through The Day<\/em>\u00a0marked a turning point for Evie \u2013 the first song she wrote that fully captured the sound she had been aiming for after years of songwriting. Built around a quietly defiant refrain \u201cI\u2019m just trying to get through the day,\u201d the track pairs vulnerable lyricism with a soaring arrangement.<\/p>\n

Evie says:<\/p>\n

\u201cI wrote Through The Day<\/em>\u00a0not long after starting my first full-time job. It was a shock to my system and suddenly all I could focus on throughout the day was waiting for it to end.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve always loved being someone who has a romantic view on life. This song came out of a fear that I was losing that part of me to a mundane routine and the inevitability of growing up.\u201d<\/p>\n
