A collaboration between Yugambeh Country/Gold Coast rock act Peach Fur and rapper Saint Lane doesn’t sound like a natural marriage on paper, but their new single “Bloom” is something special. This track brings all the good vibes you deserve at the end of the working week.
“Bloom is about the feeling of freedom after going separate ways in a relationship and having that new sense of self-discovery,” explained Peach Fur’s frontman Denny Hilder. “Bloom touches on the diversity of the album ‘Earth Radio’ has to offer.”
“Bloom is our first rap song. Although there’s similar elements instrumentally, vocally we’ve explored new areas we previously hadn’t. This is heard not just with the rapping but also the hooks and chorus. Earth Radio is a compilation of some of our favourite flavours of music into one body of work, we’re seeking a connection between a range of different listeners and the music.”
Earth Radio is coming really soon, signalling big things to come from Peach Fur in 2023.
