If you’ve caught the subtle murmurs drifting from Ōtautahi, you’re likely familiar with Goodwill. On his incisive and authentic debut Kind Hands, songwriter and producer Will McGillivray expertly blends dissonant guitars, droning analog synths, textured lo-fi elements, and yearning melodies. Rolling Stone praised the album as "a lo-fi gem that's also pristinely polished in the most exhilarating of ways." Marking a significant evolution in his craft, Kind Hands positions Goodwill as a rising indie figure from Aotearoa, appealing to fans of Alex G and Bon Iver. This acclaimed release, featuring singles like Kind Hands, Goner, and Plans, was collaboratively pressed with Winegum Records and Leather Jacket Records and ranked #27 on Rolling Stone’s Best NZ Albums of the Decade.
