Emeli Sandé has teamed up with Nile Rodgers for a new single.
The upbeat When Someone Loves You collaboration leans hard into the disco influences brought to the track by the Grammy Award-winning funk legend, and arrives ahead of their BBC Radio 2 Live performances in Leeds at Temple Newsam Park on September 18. Sandé said:
"I feel greatly privileged to have created with Nile Rodgers. He’s such a legendary musician and producer, a true icon in music.
"His humility and passion inspired me so much in the making of the music and I feel that the excitement and positivity in the studio transmits through the song. I’m very proud of When Someone Loves You and I hope it brings joy to each listener."
Rodgers added: "I've loved working with Emeli over the years as she is such a special talent, but I’ve never seen her as happy and full of life as she is right now. She has found herself and it’s beautiful to behold."
Back in May, Sandé released her latest album, 'Let's Say For Instance', which features writing and production by her, alongside F A L L E N, Naughty Boy, Booker T, Ollie Green, Henri Davies, and others.
Nile Rodgers and CHIC, meanwhile, will headline London's O2 Academy Brixton on September 19 and Manchester’s O2 Victoria Warehouse on September 21 for what has been billed as the End Of Summer Party.
