This Friday, Raphaelle ‘Ra’ Standell and Alexander ‘Agor’ Kerby – better known as Blue Hawaii – are set to release their new album ‘Tenderness’.
Having already shared ‘No One Like You’ and a video for ‘Versus Game’ recently, and they’ve now unveiled ‘Do You Need Me’. Raph said of the song: “This is my favourite track on the record. It’s not exactly a single, you can’t really dance to it or put it on at a party, but it’s beautiful and emotional and that’s the kind of stuff I love making the most. Owen Pallet composed, played and recorded all of the strings on this track. He’s truly a genius and was amazing to collaborate with.
“Take a moment for yourself and have a listen on headphones or on some nice speakers, when was the last time you listened to something on some good gear ?!!!! I haven’t in awhile either…. preaching to myself over here.
“Our record comes out this Friday, October 6th. The record has many of these moments - intimate and nostalgic. It feels so good to be coming out with music for Blue Hawaii after 4 years ! We’re so excited for this record and can’t wait to get on the road and bring this bébé to life!”
Blue Hawaii are also going on a European tour, which will take place in November. As part of it, they’ll be playing in Glasgow, Dublin, and London before heading around the continent. Tickets are on sale now.
