After eight years, Kiwi music icon Gin Wigmore has released a new album. 

‘Beautiful Mess’ is her fourth studio album, and has been described as her most personal record yet – drawing on her experiences with love, divorce, motherhood, and rebuilding her life. 

It’s an exciting day for Wigmore, with the full album dropping earlier this morning. 

“It’s like giving birth but way less painful – it's awesome,” she told Mike Hosking. 

Despite having other albums under her belt, Wigmore still feels the pressure that comes with releasing new music. 

“It’s such a feat to put out an album for me now,” she explained. 

“To be focused and have the time to actually do it, and so now it just feels way more of a feat to have had this done, and to have this out today.” 

“It just feels like this really great amount of support around it ... it honestly, it feels like Christmas.”
