Alt pop musician Tessa Kaye released her beautiful voice to the world with her vibrant, sun-soaked new single Sunshine & Rainbows - the perfect song to get you in the mood.

Tessa explains about the song: "So many times I’ve found myself in situations where I was trying to mask my authenticity to not come off as “negative.” Life isn’t always sunshine & rainbows…and I'd say that’s kinda the whole point. Balance baby. Contrast. Bad times just make the good ones feel that much better."
