Amaya Laucirica New Single “Now or Never,”A Dream-Pop Roadmap of Reflection and Resilience
Following the captivating single “Now or Never,” Naarm-based artist Amaya Laucirica returns with “Road to Us,” the second glimpse into her upcoming album The Blue Hour—due out later this year. With her signature dreamy delivery and cinematic production courtesy of James Cecil, Laucirica turns inward to map out the emotional landscape of a life transformed.
The track is an aching meditation on identity, love, and the subtle shifts that occur over time—especially within long-term relationships altered by life-altering events like parenthood. Laucirica’s lyrics are open yet specific, inviting listeners into a moment of quiet reckoning. It’s this honesty that makes “Road to Us” so affecting—there’s no melodrama, just the fragile beauty of trying to reconnect in the wake of change.
Visually, the song is brought to life in a stunning video shot by Adalita and edited by Geoffrey O’Connor. Featuring sweeping shots of Melbourne’s urban sprawl and sun-drenched coastal drives, it mirrors the song’s emotional motion—gently drifting between memory and presence, stillness and search. The beach scenes, caught in the last light of day, shimmer with a sense of quiet hope and reflection.
As a follow-up to “Now or Never,” “Road to Us” confirms that The Blue Hour will be a thoughtfully crafted, emotionally rich release that further solidifies Laucirica’s place among Australia’s most affecting songwriters.
