Background

Vanessa Amorosi released her debut single "Have a Look" in 1999, which became a Top 20 hit and went gold in Australia. She recorded four studio albums throughout the 2000s but by 2011, she grew weary of what the industry required. Amorosi said , "I was pretty burnt out, I didn't really evolve for a few years there. I really needed to rejuvenate myself and think about where I wanted to be.". In 2011, Amorosi moved to Los Angeles to begin a journey of self-discovery, to develop her music career in different ways and immersed herself in all kinds of musical experiences.[3] In Los Angeles, Amorosi met Dave Stewart of Eurythmics, who heard her voice, decided he wanted to work with her and became her musical mentor. [1] Amorosi and Stewart have been working on the album since April 2015.[4] Amorosi has signed with indie label Angel Works Productions which is distributed by Universal Music Australia, who will release her first single in almost 9 years.[5]
