The acclaimed Italian singer-songwriter Damiano David has announced the news of brand-new single ‘Talk to Me’, featuring collaborations from South African sensation and the grammy winner Tyla and the legendary and multiple Grammy award winning Nile Rodgers.
‘Talk to Me, feat Tyla & Nile Rodgers’ will be unveiled this Friday, 12th September at 00:00am GMT. The track marks an exciting collaboration that unites Damiano’s signature emotive lyricism, Tyla’s distinctive vocal style, and the unmistakable groove of Nile Rodgers. Out this Friday, 12th September via Sony Music Italy / Arista.
Announcing the forthcoming single on his social channels, Damiano says: ““As the tour was approaching, I unexpectedly felt a new wave of inspiration that led me to write ‘Talk to Me’. What made this spark even more exciting was knowing that the legendary Nile Rodgers thought the song worthy of adding his solo guitar. I always felt this song should be a duet, and since I've recently been listening a lot to ‘Water’. I was completely blown away and really wanted to have her sing it with me.”
Tyla said: “Damiano sent me this record and I instantly fell in love with how nostalgic it felt. I heard myself on it straight away. Excited about how new it feels for me, my tygrs gonna luv ittt.”
Nile Rodgers said: “When I received the song from Damiano and Tyla, I really loved the vibe of it and I wanted my guitar to be the third voice. ‘Talk To Me’ was a fun one to work on!”
Following the success of Funny Little Fears, which features collaborations with Suki Waterhouse and d4vd, this new single further cements Damiano’s commitment to expanding his musical horizons through bold, boundary-pushing creative partnerships.
Talk to Me, feat Tyla & Nile Rodgers, follows Damiano’s highly anticipated debut solo album Funny Little Fears, featuring previously released singles, ‘Born With A Broken Heart’, ‘Silverlines’ produced by Labrinth, ‘Next Summer’, ‘Voices’, Zombie Lady and ‘The First Time’. The album has already collected over 800 million global streams to date.
