Blondie will release their latest record, Pollinator, on May 5. They will update their sound by working with collaborators Sia and The Smiths’ founding member Johnny Marr.
Blondie’s guitarist Chris Stein said in a recent interview that the collab with Marr “got me really pumped up and excited.”
The band is also working with a bevy of talented songwriters, including TV On The Radio’s David Sitek, Johnny Marr, Sia, Charli XCX, Dev Hynes and more. “We thought to ask people because there’s so much good music swirling about,” Stein said in the interview.
“We sorted the contributors ourselves, or someone would send us a bunch of songs and we’d pick one,” Stein added.
The band recently released the first single off of the upcoming album, called “Fun”. Take a listen below:
