PNAU Teams Up With Ladyhawke for New Song “River”
Australian EDM trio PNAU, consisting of Nick Littlemore, Peter Mayes and Sam Littlemore, teamed up with New Zealand singer-songwriter Ladyhawke again to release a new song “River”. It is their first collaboration since 2008.
The track is PNAU's second single of 2020, following “Lucky”. Also, for Ladyhawke, the song is her first single in four years.
“River came about when Ladyhawke came back into the PNAU fold," Nick Littlemore said of the song. "It seems every time we've collaborated with her it's been incendiary. We met a long while ago; within moments of meeting it was clear we had a deep connection. Ladyhawke has a remarkable voice and her creativity is second to none. It's her humour and humility, her ability to cut through to the listener, that makes you feel like you are experiencing something for the very first time.”
He continued “This tune is a combination of Ladyhawke's brilliance and the inspiring work of Sam and Peter. I really believe this song is the living proof of magic; all the elements coming together just right. I hope with all sincerity that you experience the joy we did in making it.”- Ladyhawke said, “Years after doing Embrace with the PNAU guys, they approached me again to maybe try something new. I've always had a unique connection with Nick Littlemore so knew whatever we made would be special. I remember standing in Nick's LA home studio screaming into a microphone being egged on by him yelling 'Louder!!!!' so I could get the 'Riveerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr' just right! I love this track and am very excited to be involved.”
