Big Red Machine Releases New Song “Renegade” featuring Taylor Swift
American alt-folk band Big Red Machine, consisting of Aaron Dessner and Justin Vernon, teamed up with American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift to release a new song “Renegade”.
The song will appear on their upcoming sophomore album “How Long Do You Think It's Gonna Last?”, which is set to be released on August 27, 2021.
It was written by Aaron Dessner and Taylor Swift.
Aaron Dessner and Justin Vernon worked with Taylor Swift for her 2020 albums “Folklore” and “Evermore”.
Aaron Dessner said, “While we were making folklore and evermore last year, Taylor and I sometimes talked about experimenting and writing songs together some day for Big Red Machine. Making music with your friends just to make it—that's how Big Red Machine started and has grown—and that's how Renegade came about too. This song was something we wrote after we finished evermore and it dawned on us that this was a BRM song. Taylor's words hit me so hard when I heard her first voice memo and still do, every time. Justin lifted the song further into the heavens, and my brother [Bryce Dessner]'s strings and drummer Jason Treuting add so much. The feeling and sound of this song feel very much at the heart of How Long Do You Think It's Gonna Last? I'm so grateful to Taylor for continuing to share her incredible talent with me and that we are still finding excuses to make music together.”- h_wr-9X47ao

Taylor Swift shared on social media, “I can't believe I get to work with Aaron Dessner. When Aaron came into my life, I was ushered into his world of free-flowing creativity where you don't overthink, you just make music. His generosity of spirit and humility bleeds into every part of his life, and that's why so many artists have jumped at the chance to be a part of his collaborative project, Big Red Machine. A song we wrote (which also features ⚡️Justin Vernon✨) is out today! It's called Renegade. Thanks Aaron for asking me to show up at your party.”- source : Spotify
