Madison Cunningham has collaborated with Fleet Foxes on her latest single, ‘Wake’. The gorgeous, winsome ballad, taken from Cunningham’s forthcoming album Ace, makes great use of her vocal chemistry with Robin Pecknold. Listen to it below.
“Fleet Foxes’ melodies and songs have inspired me for as long as I can remember,” commented Cunningham, who met Pecknold backstage at one of her shows. “I feel quite lucky to have been able to experience his genius up close.”
“Working with Madison on this was a humbling and enlightening experience!” Pecknold said. “We did maybe ten takes where she played and sang perfectly every time and I struggled to keep up. She’s a force and an inspiration, thank you so much Madison for pushing things forward so masterfully.”
Ace is set for release on October 10 via Verve. Last year, Cunningham joined forces with Andrew Bird for Cunningham Bird, an album-length remake of Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks’ Buckingham Nicks.
