This creative collaboration will feature an original record and accompanying music video, “Let Go,” recorded by Bedingfield and produced by Grammy-nominated Justin Stanley (Eric Clapton, Gary Clark Jr., Elton John). “Let Go”, aims to encourage people to exhale, take a break from their daily hustle to enjoy a moment of serenity; the track will be used throughout NESTEA’s integrated marketing campaign appearing as the soundtrack for TV advertisements, digital marketing efforts, in-store and exclusive social content.

 

Natasha Bedingfield added, “In the busy world we’re living in, it’s far too easy to get stressed out, clinging to our mobile phones, working too hard and not unplugging as much as we could. I love the idea of NESTEA’s ‘taste of freedom’ campaign – asking us all to ‘Let Go’, put the sun on our faces and give ourselves a moment to take a deep breath. This freedom is very much the spirit of what I believe music should be about: letting go.”

The record will be released worldwide by MINOS EMI a Universal Music Company, label President, Margarita Matsa stated, “It’s a great honor for us to release worldwide a new song from such a wonderful artist like Natasha and to participate in this unique and innovative campaign.”

NESTEA International Marketing Director Marcos De la Torre added, “Substantial research has shown that millennials are far too stressed, and it’s usually from the small annoyances of modern life like traffic jams, delayed metro, a grumpy boss, endless meetings, IT issues, etc. We believe that by stepping out for a moment and looking past these everyday irritations, you can gain some valuable perspective and realize that at the end of the day, these small worries can be overcome with a more relaxed attitude. Tea is known for its calming and relaxing properties. NESTEA believes that building the habit of drinking more tea and taking things easier will help people cope with the everyday stress and even put and smile on their faces. Working on this campaign with Natasha is allowing us to spread our brand message in a more engaging and enjoyable to listen way than traditional advertising.”

This creative collaboration comes courtesy of Deviant Ventures, which specializes in integration of music and brands. Chief of Possibilities, Umut Özaydinli notes “Natasha’s partnership with NESTEA is another example of the ever-changing music landscape and an innovative example of native advertising – where artists can partner with brands they believe in to create music that serves as a rallying cry to bring the brand’s message to life.” Ozaydinli believes, “NESTEA is at the forefront of using music videos in place of the traditional television spot as part of digital and social marketing efforts.” Ozaydinli also explained “most of us have office jobs, the marketing efforts around the release of the track and the music video will invite people to take a break from their daily routine, enjoy a great tune and let go a little. Deviant Ventures is excited to continuously bridge the gap between brands like NESTEA and musicians like Natasha Bedingfield.”

“Let Go” will be released to media platforms worldwide on March 24th.
