Fast becoming one of Alternative Pop’s most promising talents, 18-year-old award-winning South African singer-songwriter Vaughn Prangley is carving out a unique path with his unmistakably deep, soulful, and emotionally weathered voice, that speaks to a maturity way beyond his years. His latest single ‘Road Trip’ is from his 2022 debut album ‘Destination Unknown’ and produced by singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalists Howie Combrink. Vaughn shares that “Feeling stuck in the routine of normal, everyday life is something that we can all relate to. We long for something different that separates today from yesterday and tomorrow. At heart ‘Road Trip’ is a love song that I hope inspires others to hop in a car with a special someone and just go wherever the road may lead! Experience new cultures, meet and get to know unfamiliar faces, and explore the world of the unknown. I want ‘Road Trip’ to be a song that really puts a smile on faces. The message also feeds strongly into the overall theme of my album ‘Destination Unknown’; In life we rarely know where our journey is taking us, but that’s what makes it so exciting. I want to encourage others to avoid living a cookie-cutter lifestyle, and step outside of the social-norm safety nets that society throws over us. Often risky decisions create the best memories. Every second of every day we add a new line to our life story, so make every chapter one to be remembered!”Critically.To date ‘Destination Unknown’ earned a SAMA Nomination for ‘Best Produced Album Of The Year’, a finalist spot in the US Unsigned Only Music Competition, and a coveted win in the ISC International Songwriting Competition.
