Melbourne songwriter and engineer Nayomi Pattuwage got her start working behind-the-scenes of the music industry. However, with her solo project Like Bear, she’s stepped into the spotlight. And aren’t we glad she did! “Usually Does,” her second single, is an optimistic piece of indie pop that should help you get through your working week.
“I wrote Usually Does two years prior to contacting James [Seymour, who produced the song], so I hadn’t touched on any production ideas since that acoustic demo,” Nayomi explained. “My biggest fear with resurrecting this song was that it had solidified into the acoustic demo that I knew it to be, and I wouldn’t be able to hear anything outside of what it already was. James just tackled it head-on. He is super easy to work with, and ridiculously quick – ideas pour from his fingertips.”
No matter how your week is going, I swear Like Bear’s new single “Usually Does” will make it better.
