Watch “Sunscreen” by LIZ & SOPHIE
In 2015, the audaciously innovative pop visionary LIZ joined forces with the groundbreaking producer SOPHIE to release the captivating track “When I Rule The World.” This bold collaboration not only showcased LIZ’s unique artistic flair but also catapulted her from the vibrant yet niche underground pop scene into the intense scrutiny of the online blogosphere. Notably a place where she quickly became a subject of widespread fascination.
While LIZ maintained an air of cool confidence and artistic integrity. By comparison, her partnership with SOPHIE infused her music with a fresh, experimental edge that significantly broadened her appeal. Throughout her career, LIZ has exemplified remarkable resilience. Above all, continuously evolving her sound and similarly carving out a distinctive space for herself in the industry.
However, whispers of unreleased material from the LIZ and SOPHIE collaboration have circulated among fans and industry insiders. Until recently, these tantalising rumours remained without a bona fide acknowledgement. Thus, it leaves fans in a state of limbo regarding the potential unveiling of this enigmatic work.
In celebration of the tenth anniversary of “When I Rule The World,” LIZ introduces an exciting addition to her legacy by sharing “Sunscreen,” a collaborative track with the late, innovative artist SOPHIE. Originally conceived in 2018 at SOPHIE’s Nichols Canyon home studio, “Sunscreen” has become a fascinating piece of internet history. It has been enthusiastically shared in DJ sets and has circulated on YouTube and SoundCloud. Notably inspiring numerous discussions and threads in online communities. This release not only honours SOPHIE’s creative vision but also enriches LIZ’s discography and connects fans in a shared appreciation of their artistry.
Yet, it’s not just the music that evokes a powerful connection to SOPHIE. A stunning new music video, filmed in the breathtaking locale of Mykonos, Greece, showcases a vision originally crafted by SOPHIE and Renata Raksha. Under the skilful direction of James Orlando. This vibrant piece comes alive, embodying a captivating concept where poolside glamour seamlessly intertwines with sun-soaked reverie.
Furthermore, a limited-edition vinyl of “SUNSCREEN” will also be released, to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of LIZ and SOPHIE’s first collaboration, the cult hit “When I Rule the World.” (PRE-save HERE)
