ARXX have shared a new version of Baby Uh Huh.
The original track appears on the queer power-pop duo's debut album, 'Ride Or Die', which arrive back in March.
The reinvention, meanwhile, was recorded for the London trans-led aid group We Exist, and finds Hanni Pidduck and Clara Townsend collaborating with Ailbhe Reddy, Cherym, Phoebe Green, Beth White, Merpire, Belot, SOFT LAD, crysometimes, CLT DRP and Ida Just. Commenting on the release, ARXX said in a statement:
"We were looking at the world around us, at all the attacks on Queer lives and in particular Trans lives and we wanted to do something to show our support with our Queer community. Baby Uh Huh is about finding the right people to surround yourself with to make you a better version of yourself, which is a very Queer experience.
"We chose a bunch of our friends who are Queer artists to sing on this record and celebrate Queerness whilst raising money for a really important Trans healthcare charity. A donation and half of the proceeds from this record will go to We Exist and further donations can be made on our Bandcamp."
It marks the second ARXX release in support of trans and queer communities, the first being their 2022 single Couldn't Help Myself.
