The Null Club joins forces with Miss Grit on new single, "Overgrown"
Alan Duggan-Borges, guitarist of Gilla Band, has revived his The Null Club moniker for the release of new single, "Overgrown" featuring New York's Miss Grit.
"The hypnotic but kind of punishing nature of a 909 kick drum is something I’ve always searched for in music. When I first got a 909 drum machine and heard how full the kick drum could be by itself, I got lost in that specific low end for a good few weeks. The studio where I write has some big big subs, so I would sit there for hours chasing the full sound of those drums. That was the starting point of this track," The Null Club explains.
"When I had a rough pass of the instrumental done, Miss Grit added vocals and life to the track. The whole thing came together quite naturally and the vocals added so much feel and texture to the track."
“I’ve been a fan of Alan’s work for a while now so I was honestly shocked he wanted to work with me. When he sent over the track I was obsessed, but also intimidated because it was so good and I didn’t know how I was gonna make it sound any better than it already was. I ended up writing lyrics about that basically - the overthinking and self-consciousness that often gets stirred up in myself when collaborating. I was so happy hearing the final version. Alan made me sound so much better than I thought I did,” Miss Grit adds.
"Overgrown" feat Miss Grit is out now.
