Beautiful Collision is Bic Runga’s second album. Her debut album, Drive, was released in 1998. It sold 7 x Platinum in her home country of New Zealand, where it is the biggest selling local artist album ever. In Australia, Drive is near Gold sales. The album spawned the radio hit ‘Sway’ (a gold selling single). Bic has delivered a stunning follow up album with Beautiful Collision. It’s been four years, but well worth the wait.

Written while travelling between New York and New Zealand, and recorded in studios ranging from Bic’s home studio in Auckland to Los Angeles and New York studios, Beautiful Collision is an international album, but is also intensely intimate.
