ELLE: What can you tell us about the LP you’re working on?
SF: I’m releasing a single this winter. I’ve been writing with my boyfriend Nick, who’s in the Virgins, for the past year or two. I’m working with Jon Brion [ed note: major Fiona Apple producer] in the new year and possibly recording with Shirley Manson and Greg Kurstin. I’ve been working with Greg since I was like, 15-years-old. This recording process is about making good music and collaboration. All of the people I’m working with believe in what I’m doing and it really makes a difference. I’ve made about 5 debut albums at this point, but this one is where my heart is truly at… and no label set backs!
SKY FERREIRA REVEALS AMAZING NON-ELECTRO PRODUCERS ON DEBUT ALBUM
Quote:
When Sky Ferreira said she was over dance-pop, the bitch wasn’t kidding.
In a new interview with Elle, the model-singer spilled the tea on the amazingly badass collaborators she’s scored to work on her long-awaited debut album, and when I say they’re seriously amazing, I’m not f-ing kidding.
Sky’s somehow managed to snag Fiona Apple’s longtime producer Jon Brion, who crafted Apple’s first two studio albums, and the unreleased version of her third. He’s also worked with Dido, Kanye West, and Aimee Mann, putting Ferreira in good hands.
If Brion wasn’t enough, Sky’s also “possibly” going to record with Garbage frontwoman Shirley Manson!
On top of that, Sky’s still working with Greg Kurstin (Sia, Britney, Lily Allen), and she’s been writing with her boyfriend Nick, who is in the catchy hipster-rock band, The Virgins. And we already know that she’s been in the studio with Paul Epworth (Florence + the Machine, Adele), rounding out what is shaping up to be one defining album.
The first single is currently due out in February, so it won’t be too long now until we can bless our ears with the stunning new sounds of Sky Ferreira.
