A.R.T Release New EP Blank Canvas
Wellington based female trio A.R.T have released their EP Blank Canvas, marking a clear shift in direction for the group.
Known for their three part harmonies and blend of R&B; with island influence, the trio chose to approach this project differently. Rather than continuing with the sound that first introduced them to audiences, they treated this EP as a reset and rebuilt their direction from the ground up.
The release follows the response to “Over Now,” which dropped in early February and gained traction across Instagram and TikTok, with listeners using the track for breakup and empowerment content. The momentum signaled that the group’s new direction was connecting.
Blank Canvas moves through different stages of relationships including independence, reflection, desire, and commitment. The focus track “Full Attention” leans into reassurance and presence, highlighting the vocal chemistry that defines A.R.T.
“This project forced us to be honest about where we are now,” the group says. “We did not want to repeat ourselves. We wanted to start fresh and see what came out of it.”
As a female trio operating in a space often dominated by solo acts, A.R.T have taken a deliberate step toward defining their sound on their own terms.
Blank Canvas is available on all streaming platforms now.
