After a chaotic 18-month period, Kiwi musician Anna Coddington has returned with a new album.

Coddington's Te Whakamiha embraces an upbeat sound, several years after her more subdued work in 2020's Beams.

She says she struggled with her home being caught up in the Auckland floods and her case of long Covid- but she's working to build her strength up.

"It just felt like the right time to try and reach for that sound, cause I've got a great band - we have an awesome time together, it's so much fun... it just felt like a good time to make a fun album."
