Music Video Premiere: 'Read Receipts' - Ella Minehan

Exuberant, groovy and bright; dive into the radiant energy of Ella Minehan’s new single ‘Read Receipts’. On this new single, Minehan tackles a toxic ‘situationship’, choosing to walk away from someone who isn’t a good match and leaving them on ‘seen’; an important message in honouring one’s worth and choosing to put yourself first. Paired with a feel-good, infectious pop beat and powerhouse vocals, this track is relatable and one that is easy to groove to.

‘Read Receipts’ arrives alongside a charismatic visualizer inspired by iconic chick flicks Clueless, Legally Blonde and Mean Girls. The video, directed by Tom Grut, brings to life a girly, 2000’s-esque barbie dream world, featuring Barbie Ella in a toxic situationship, struggling to part with a relationship that no longer serves her. In this world of pink, ‘Ken’ (‘Spot’, as played by TikTok talent Taylor Roche), is always on the outside while Ella and her friends are content in their own dream world, just girls being girls.

The track was co-written by Ella Minehan and Abigail Knudson, produced by Edward Liu and Christian Tjandrawinata at Parachute Studios in Auckland and is supported by NZ On Air.
