Kayla Mahon is a singer, songwriter, instrumentalist, music teacher and nurse from the South Island of Aotearoa New Zealand who has released music in the duo The Heartleys and as a solo artist she’s been releasing singles steadily since last year, including 'Love's Got a Witness' and 'Little Man'. She now has an album - her first solo record - called Right on the Money.
The creation and release of the album are the fulfilment of Mahon’s lifelong dream of releasing original music that authentically represents her artistry. Right on the Money showcase's Mahon’s songwriting skills across a range of styles, from traditional country to rock-infused country anthems.
In conversation Mahon is as authentic and heartfelt as her songs, and our conversation covered her motivation to return to music after taking time to focus on motherhood; how teaching music and mentoring other artists of all ages keeps her engaged with the local music community; the very personal stories behind emotional tracks like ‘Angels Biding Time’ and ‘Home on the Vinyl’; balancing music aspirations with family life and her nursing career, and her goals to perform the new album live as much as possible and reach new audiences.
