This episode on Queering The Air, Sasja was joined by the incredibly talented Samuel Gaskin to discuss his new single, “Find My Way Back,” in collaboration with Kee’han.
Creating a love letter for their ancestors, Naarm based multi-hyphenate Samuel Gaskin and soulful singer-songwriter Kee’ahn have combined creative forces on the liberating new single ‘Find My Way Back’, which was dropped onto Planet Earth on Wednesday 7 August. ‘Find My Way Back’ is Samuel Gaskin’s first new music for 2024, and sees them channelling their Māori and Nigerian roots in this personal collaboration with Kee’ahn.
Out via Noisehive, ‘Find My Way Back’ was produced by Samuel Gaskin and Pip Norman (Baker Boy, Missy Higgins, Dan Sultan), with Hayden Laureson (Woodes, Akosia, Boy Soda) on mixing duties and mastered by Joe La Porta (Willow, Laufey, Miley Cyrus) at Sterling Sound in New Jersey. Sam and Kee’ahn’s commanding vocal synergy complements each other perfectly nestled amongst the layers of delicate harmonies emphasising their songwriting prowess and catchy melodies, “an invitation to accept ourselves where we are at so that we can have the courage and self belief, to chase after what feels like home” shares Kee’ahn With a clear message and reminder to listen deeply to country, and to be led by your ancestors, “For me ‘Find My Way Back’ is a love letter to the Ancestors and the parts of ourselves we may have shut down or been disconnected from,” revealsSamuel Gaskin
