Adam Hattaway Unveils Single / Video 'High Horse' ft. Erny Belle

Canterbury's proud son Adam Hattaway and his group the Haunters join forces with Northland songwriting star Erny Belle aka Aimee Renata (Ngāpuhi) on new single 'High Horse', produced by no less than Lyttelton's Marlon Williams. Out today on a strictly limited 7" vinyl edition backed with lonesome B-side 'She's Gone', Hattaway's 'High Horse' gallops into our hearts with oodles of country / soul-rockin' sass and swagger from both singers, plus the sweetest of sentiments — "c'mon cowboy!"

Marlon Williams also directs the cinematic video for 'High Horse', made with support from NZ On Air — spotlighting the Hattaway and the Haunters' on-screen denim-clad stage chemistry and kitchen scrubbing prowess, filmed in a variety of iconic southern locations. A crucial member of Ōtautahi's songwriting community who's given us numerous irresistible anthems already (check out Anthology 2018-2023 as proof), Hattaway's 'High Horse' feels like an absolute winner.

"We’ve always strived to make simple catchy music covered in stringy noodles of distortion. I think we get the closest we’ve gotten thus far to the sound we hear in our heads with High Horse".
