Etty Lau Farrell Spreads Her Wings On New Single “Butterfly” With Drum & Bass Pioneer DJ Rap
Musician, entrepreneur, and wife of Perry Farrell, founder and creator of Lollapalooza, Etty Lau Farrell continues the creative evolution that has defined her recent work with the release of her latest single, “Butterfly,” out today and produced by pioneering electronic artist DJ Rap. Through the combination of Etty’s ethereal vocals with DJ Rap’s iconic house-inspired production, the track unfolds as a euphoric dance-pop anthem rooted in timeless vocal house. Driven by soaring melodies, hypnotic rhythms, and an undeniable sense of release, “Butterfly” captures the beauty of transformation, embracing change, finding freedom, and stepping into a new version of yourself.
Following her recent collaboration with electronic artist VNSSA on “Step Into My Light,” “Butterfly” continues Etty’s ongoing celebration of the women shaping dance music today. The release with DJ Rap marks another chapter in Etty’s evolving musical story, one rooted in connection, creativity, and fearless self expression..
“I am really happy to have the opportunity to lend my vocals to the song ‘Butterfly.’ DJ Rap has written a beautiful song. This song is very apropos not only to my personal journey, but also to women around the world,” says Etty Lau Farrell “We are often confined in our cocoons, but there comes a day when we break out of our chrysalis. The world will see us with our beautiful wings, and we will fly freely.”
A trailblazer in electronic music, DJ Rap has spent decades pushing boundaries as a producer, DJ, and vocalist, helping shape the global drum & bass movement while paving the way for women in the genre. Her signature production style brings a dynamic edge to “Butterfly,” creating a powerful fusion of two distinct artistic voices.
“This song has always been about emotion and connection, so hearing Etty Lau Farrell bring her own voice and interpretation to it gave it a completely new dimension and new life,” says DJ Rap.
Beyond music, Etty continues to expand her creative vision with the launch of Lolla Girl, an activation and dedicated merch line arriving at Lollapalooza Chicago next weekend. Festivalgoers are invited to step into Etty’s vibrant world at the Lolla Girl activation in Vibe Village, an interactive experience inspired by the creativity, connection, and magic that have defined the Lollapalooza spirit for decades. Featuring games, a photo booth to capture festival memories, and exclusive giveaways, the activation will offer fans the chance to win festival pass upgrades, limited-edition Lolla Girl merchandise, and other curated surprises, all courtesy of the Festival Fairy Godmother herself. The experience marks another extension of Etty’s mission to inspire and empower women through art, music, and shared experiences, proving that creativity, reinvention, and new beginnings are possible at any stage of life.
