Chart-topping New Zealand country artist Miranda Easten unveils her most moving release to date with When I Dream - a hauntingly beautiful ballad that captures the bittersweet ache of longing for someone who has passed on. The single is available on all major streaming platforms from May 9, 2025.
Co-written with UK friend Chris Childs, When I Dream explores the surreal comfort of dreaming about a loved one who is no longer here - where memory and imagination collide, and love lingers in the silence of night.
The track features a world-class production team:
Produced by Greg Haver (Melanie C, Manic Street Preachers, Kimbra)
Mixed by Adrian Hall (Shakira, Tori Amos, All Saints, Robbie Williams)
Mastered by Ryan Smith in Nashville (Coldplay, Britney Spears, Adele, Beyoncé)
The result is a sonically rich, emotionally stirring track that fuses Easten’s signature country storytelling with lush, cinematic instrumentation.
Easten’s critically acclaimed second album Concrete and Honey debuted at #6 on the Official New Zealand Albums Chart in 2024, cementing her status as a rising force in modern country music. Her work has been featured on CMT, MTV, Nashville TV, and Taste of Country, and she continues to build a strong international fanbase through striking music videos and heartfelt performances.
When I Dream is a song for anyone who’s ever loved and lost - and found comfort in the dream-filled hours that follow.
