Pitchfork Music Festival London and Abbey Road Studios have shared the first installment from the 2024 edition of Amplify x Pitchfork London. The video series, which features festival artists writing and recording a new song at the famed studio, kicks off today with a collaboration between Ian Sweet and Porridge Radio, who played last year’s festival. Below, check out their new song, “Everyone’s a Superstar,” plus a video interview about the songwriting and recording process.
Speaking about working on the new song, Ian Sweet said, “We all clicked in a really magical way right off the bat, everyone sort of took their places and fit in where they had to. We came out of it with something I feel so proud of. And something I never knew would exist.”
Porridge Radio added, “It was amazing to come into a room of seven musicians with absolutely no idea what was going to happen and lock in together to write and record a song that we actually all love in one day. Creatively it was so exciting and such a fun process and we’re so proud of what we made.”
Artists performing at this year’s Pitchfork Music Festival London include Arooj Aftab, Jessica Pratt, billy woods, Empress Of, Low’s Alan Sparhawk, Tierra Whack, Still House Plants, and many more. The festival takes place November 5-10.
Previous installments of the Amplify x Pitchfork London series have featured Cassandra Jenkins, L’Rain, Iceage, and Yaya Bey.
