British glam rockers The Struts and acclaimed singer and songwriter Paris Jackson have joined forces for ‘Low Key in Love’ a fiery duet out now via Interscope / Polydor Records. Listen here.
Fuelled by their powerful chemistry, the song centres on a soulful vocal exchange between Jackson and Struts frontman Luke Spiller, who also co-stars in the track’s video. ‘Low Key in Love’ by The Struts with Paris Jackson is available now at all digital retailers. Watch the visualiser HERE.
Produced by Tommy English, ‘Low Key in Love’ delivers everything you could ask for in an iconic rock-and-roll duet. With its dreamy backdrop of golden guitar tones and low-slung grooves, the track finds Spiller and Jackson telling their tale of a tequila-soaked night and channelling the sweet frustration of trying to hide your feelings from the one you adore.
“‘Low Key In Love’ was written after a date in Los Angeles at 70’s retro bar, Good Times at Davey Wayne’s,” says Spiller. “I walked into the studio explaining that we needed the song to have the essence you feel when entering the bar and absorb the vibe. When we decided to explore the idea of a duet, I thought back to that night and remembered that Paris played a brilliant acoustic set. Something inside was telling me that everything happened for a reason, so I decided to message her. I’m convinced some things are just written in the stars. Bringing in Paris just gave the song a whole new dimension and really brings the story to life. She is beautiful and brilliant. A star.”
“I first heard of The Struts when I went to go see Mötley Crüe play their final set on New Year’s Eve night at Staples Center a few years ago. The boys opened up for them and I had no idea it was going to be as incredible as it was,” says jackson. “I just remember turning to my friend and saying ‘who the f*** ARE these guys!?’ I was so blown away by their talent, their stage presence, and their energy. It felt like I had time travelled and got to experience what rock’n’roll was at its prime, like with the Rolling Stones and Queen. I started listening to their music and would see them at events here and there, and we’ve always been pretty friendly online. When Luke asked to work with me, it was an immediate yes. It’s been a privilege and an honour to sing on a song that I know means so much to Luke, and I’m grateful for the friendship that has sprung from such a lovely project. It’s unlike anything I have ever done or thought to do before, and I’m here for it.”
‘Low Key in Love’ is only the latest collaboration from The Struts, whose recent album ‘Strange Days’ includes a stellar lineup of guest musicians. Released last October, the band’s third full-length offers up tracks like ‘Another Hit of Showmanship,’ a poignant powerhouse featuring the blazing guitar work of Albert Hammond Jr of The Strokes. Meanwhile, ‘Strange Days’ serves up the unforgettable vocals of pop legend Robbie Williams. An explosive collaboration with Def Leppard’s Phil Collen and Joe Elliott, ‘I Hate How Much I Want You’ finds Spiller trading throat-shredding vocals with Elliott to magnificent effect. And on ‘Wild Child’, Rage Against The Machine’s Tom Morello joins Spiller, guitarist Adam Slack, bassist Jed Elliott, and drummer Gethin Davies for a fierce and filthy anthem that marks their heaviest track yet.
