Award-winning New Zealand R&B/pop artist, Vince Harder is set to make waves in the music scene once again with his latest single, “Pretty Girl/Teine Aulelei.”
The track is deeply connected to Vince’s Samoan heritage, reflecting his love for Samoa and his family. The journey to this musical gem began five years ago when Vince was in Samoa with his family.

However, life got in the way, and the song was nearly forgotten until recently when Vince stumbled upon the original audio files while rummaging through an old hard drive.
