Brooke Duff (born 27 November 1991) is a New Zealand recording artist and songwriter.

The single reached number nine on the New Zealand Singles Chart.

Early life and career Brooke Duff was born in Christchurch, New Zealand in 1991. Duff has been singing since the age of ten through her Church, but she moved to Australia for her career. The song was produced by Vince Harder and NOX, both originating from the Illegal Musik production house. The song debuted at number nine on the New Zealand Singles Chart (which features singles from New Zealand artists), becoming Duff's first top ten single. The song rose to number two, and had officially charted on the New Zealand Singles Chart at number twenty-seven.

Brooke discussed the concept of "Till the End":

A fan had asked Duff if an accompanying music video will be produced for the single, which she replied; "Yes! We've already shot it, just waiting to release it! Keep an eye out! :) can't wait to show you all! #excited". In an interview with The Edge, she was asked if she was in production with an upcoming studio album, which she replied; "You'll have to wait and see....".

Influences and musical style While interviewed with Glassons Blog, she was asked what music inspires her and she said "I guess when you're making pop music you tend to listen to other pop artists, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Beyoncé, Jessie J. But I also love artists like Emeli Sande, Frank Ocean, Jazmine Sullivan [...] I go through music fads where I will only listen to a particular artist, at the moment it's Kimbra (another fellow NZ musician)."

In trends and fashion, she responded that she is a huge fan of Jeffery Campbell for his "shoes". She also said "You seriously feel like you could conquer anything in them [BlackMilk Collections] they're super shiny, nice and stretchy and they always get comments."
