Du Blonde has shared Mind Is On My Mind, featuring Future Islands' Samuel T Herring.
The track is taken from the Newcastle artist's debut album as Du Blonde, 'Welcome Back To Milk', which is due for release May 18. Discussing it, she said:
“I wrote Mind Is On My Mind on the back of a motorbike riding down the Pacific Coast Highway in LA and had to remember it all the way from Topanga to Malibu. I was interested at the time in writing songs with no repeating sections, but rather a succession of acts. A couple of months later, Sam and I took a trip out to the desert and came back to LA to make some music. I played him the track and he got in the booth and ad-libbed his lyrics over the instrumentation. He was done in like one or two takes. When I was back in London I'd become obsessed with these Middle Eastern and Greek guitar scales and I added the lead guitar in the outro as a contrast to Sam's vocals.”
