Blending Lili's thoughtful vocals and the soul-tinged production from Nick Arcade and the flow of theWHOevers, the trio's hybrid jam captures the hazy confusion that comes with battling the turbulent throes of love and navigating through the labyrinth of relationships. Speaking on her recent collaboration Lili had this to say:
Working with theWHOevers was great, as a creative process it flowed so easily. It's awesome to make music with other artists that you have respect for…I'm excited whenever we perform, because my band and I get to jam out as a group of friends, and it's beautiful to share that love for music with people who appreciate it.
Stream the song above and check out a mellow Jeremy Franklin directed black and white visual treatment for Lili and theWHOevers' jazzy new cut.
