Kita Alexander returns with 'Press Pause', a sun-soaked anthem about stillness, presence, and quiet resilience.
ARIA-nominated singer-songwriter Kita Alexander is back with ‘Press Pause’, a shimmering new single that distills the quiet beauty of being truly present. Released via Warner Music Australia, the track balances nostalgic pop textures with raw emotional insight: a signature that’s made Kita one of Australia’s most compelling modern voices.
‘Press Pause’ is sun-drenched yet reflective, pairing breezy hooks with lyrical weight. “It’s not about fixing things,” she shares. “It’s about holding space, staying still, and letting someone know they’re not alone.” That delicate emotional clarity defines the track’s core, offering a soft landing for listeners in the midst of chaos.
The release follows a huge year for Kita. She supported Dua Lipa across Australia and New Zealand, celebrated the release of her debut album YOUNG IN LOVE — which hit #3 on the ARIA chart — and announced her upcoming appearances at The Great Escape in Brighton and a London headline show at The Camden Assembly. Recently signing with One Fiinix Live (home to Ed Sheeran and Tash Sultana), her international reach continues to expand.
With over 300 million streams, a stack of ARIA certifications, and collaborations with artists like FISHER and LAUREL, Kita Alexander is entering her boldest era yet, one heartfelt lyric at a time. ‘Press Pause’ is a reminder that pop can be both powerful and profoundly human.
