On the eve of release to New Zealand radio of the brand new HERA single “FEELS SO GOOD”, Icelandic radio is feeling REALLY good about her first new material there in over two years with the single topping the first two Most Played Lists of 2008 on Iceland’s main national music radio station, RAS-2. The track was serviced to radio in Iceland at the beginning of December 2007 immediately jumping onto mainstream radio A-lists and cementing Hera’s position as one of the top female artists in her native country. Recorded at The Roundhouse in Auckland and produced by David Long (Fur Patrol, Lucid 3) “Feels So Good” the Christchurch based singer-songwriter’s debut NZ single and is released to radio here in early February 2008.
