NEW MUSIC: CAROLINE POLACHEK | BILLIONS

Singer-songwriter Caroline Polachek released a new song, “Billions,” and a music video. She co-wrote and co-produced with Danny L Harle. The track features London's Trinity Boys Choir. Caroline Polachek and Matt Copson directed the accompanying music video. The track is the former Chairlift singer’s first solo material since 2021’s underrated track "Bunny Is A Rider," while she teamed up with Charli XCX and Christine & the Queens for "New Shapes" late last year. Speaking of the new track, which premiered on BBC Radio 1 this evening (February 9) and was produced by Polachek and Danny L Harle, Polachek said: “The overabundance of this world overwhelms me. Sometimes it seems like an ultimate tragedy, the earth being pillaged and destroyed for it. “Sometimes it seems pre-human, beyond morality, sublime. I don’t pick sides; I just live here, with you. How does it feel, being so rich?” When Polachek returned last year with the single ‘Bunny Is A Rider,’ it marked her first original music since her 2019 debut solo album "Pang." In between, she shared several remixes, covers and features, including a cover of The Corrs‘ "Breathless" and her remix of A.G. Cook’s "Oh Yeah." The single was released along with “Long Road Home,” reworked with American electronic music producer Oneohtrix Point Never. The first single from her 2020 album “Magic Oneohtrix Point Never.”
