Jacknife Lee's new album will feature collaborations with Beth Ditto, Petite Noir, and more
Legendary producer Jacknife Lee has announced his new album The Jacknife Lee, which will feature collaborations with Gossip's Beth Ditto, Petite Noir, and many others.
The producer, known for his work with The Killers, Regina Spektor, U2, R.E.M., Empire Of The Sun, Jack Garratt, Catfish and the Bottlemen, and more, has announced his new album The Jacknife Lee.
Lee has also shared a preview of his new album with lead single "Made It Weird" featuring Open Mike Eagle.
He says of working with Open Mike Eagle, "Open Mike Eagle was on my dream list of collaborators but I didn’t think he’d do it. His flow is ridiculously clever and smooth. I’ve been a fan of his for ages. Once he was convinced to come to Topanga we just hung out, listened to records and I played him the beat and he took it away. And then this happened. He makes it sound so so easy but he’s doing some mad shit in there. This beat is the only sample on the record. It’s from Francis Lai "Young Freedom"."
The Jacknife Lee will be Lee's first album since his 2007 self-titled album, and features collaborations with Earl St Clair and Beth Ditto, Sneaks and Haviah Mighty, Genesis Owusu, Aloe Blacc, and more.
