Listen To Estère's New Single 'Calculated Risk'

Estère fearlessly embraces the unknown on her new single 'Calculated Risk', recorded in collaboration with Massive Attack producer Stew Jackson. A soulful lead cut from the Pōneke-based artist's forthcoming album Archetypes, Estère's latest track explores "the vulnerability of love and breaking free of constraints to reach the sweet reward of a previously unknown and unattainable freedom" — casting off the conservative chains of age-old cautionary tales over silky smooth liquid funk grooves. The Tui nominated songwriter is celebrating the launch of 'Calculated Risk' in style this October at her hometown's San Fran — read Estère's words on the single and mark the details below in your calendar...

"There are age-old myths and archetypes about how women taking risks and being curious about things can literally ruin the world. Calculated Risk explores how I can be freed from the chains of judgement and failure, opening up about my feelings, deep desires, and dreams. This song is about naming this part of myself - letting it breathe and allowing it to holler out - with no specific end goal in sight."
