Come April 4, Sir Elton John and Brandi Carlile will release a collaborative full length.
The now 77-year-old British icon and the 43-year old American songstress have joined forces to record Who Believes In Angels?
About his most recent collaboration, Elton explained:
“This record was one of the toughest I’ve ever made, but it was also one of the greatest musical experiences of my life. It has given me a place where I know I can move forward.” “‘Who Believes In Angels?’ feels like going into another era and I’m pushing the door open to come into the future. I have everything I’ve done behind me and it’s been brilliant, amazing. But this is the new start for me. As far as I’m concerned, this is the start of my career Mark 2.”
Addressing her experience working with the knighted musician, Carlile explaining that Elton helped to create an “inspiring environment to work in” and that she found recording the new record to be a “joyful” experience, adding:
“I think all ships rise with Elton John’s standards for songwriting, and it was an incredibly challenging and inspiring environment to work in, everybody throwing in ideas, everybody listening to everybody else’s ideas. It felt like a family.” “The world is a wild place to live in right now. It’s hard to find peace and triumph. It’s a radical act to seek out joyful and euphoric happenings. And that is what this album represents to me.”
