Simon Andersson and Sir Duke collaborate on new summer single, "Together"
Review by Austin Sher
Released on July 31st, 2020 Simon Andersson has just debuted his collaboration single with Sir Duke, titled “Together”. Read along with us as we break down the new track, as well as provide a bit of background on the artist himself.
Currently making waves within multiple music genres, Simon Andersson multitasks as a singer, songwriter, and producer. Before we get into the music, we’d love to provide a quick bio on both artists, just to familiarize ourselves. Back in Sweden, Simon built his own recording studio and
is currently on a blazing trail, merging musical genres and styles. Back in 2013, he walked off The Fonda Theater stage, winning ”Best Song of The Year”. He then went on a recording trip to Nashville and climbed the Music Row Charts with two singles. The CMA Music Festival invited him two years in a row and his international fan base started to grow and continues to this day.
Simon’s collaborator on “Together”, Sir Duke, has been performing in front of 500,000 people worldwide. His Coco Jamboo version released by Universal Music has passed the 1.5 million streaming mark alone. Some of his live performances include the Swedish Miss Universe Finals and being opening act for many big stars such as Haddaway, Sheila Bonnicks (Boney M) and more.
“Together” is the duo’s first release and there’s a nice upbeat tempo to it. Starting with a
reverberated guitar pattern it fades into a rhythmic acoustic guitar, that is the foundation of the
song. Simon’s voice is warm, exciting and sincere, and by the chorus you’re struck by a beautiful melody paired with more rhythmic elements raising the expectations. Before the drop you’re hit by big sounding drums, panning right to left and it ends with a break featuring the title: “Together”
A lot of music comes our way, but the standout tracks are always the electronic mixed with acoustic guitars and catchy voices. What we have here is an absolutely stunning summer single that deserves to be played loud and with the bass cranked all the way up. We immediately imagined ourselves sitting by the beach with this playing, or even cruising down the highway singing at the top of our lungs.
Simon Andersson and Sir Duke have perfected the formula for this ultimate dance track. The lyrics are catchy and memorable, but what really impressed us the most, was just how smooth they both sound. While parts of the song are just Simon and just Sir Duke, the moments on “Together” where they join together for layered vocals sent shivers down our spine.
What we’re trying to say here is that you should absolutely take the time out of your day and listen to this track! We know for a fact we’ll be watching both of their careers a lot closer after hearing this release. If you’re a fan of fun, danceable, and catchy music, then not only should you be listening to “Together”, but we encourage you to listen to the rest of their discography.
