Words: Ellie Ward
Their debut album 'Treehouse' arrives on April 13, and as well as a the first part of their mammoth world tour coming up, New York duo Sofi Tukker have dropped a new single cut from the record.
Premiered today (April 3) on Zane Lowe's Beats1 show, the pair - Sophie Hawley-Weld and Tucker Halpern - describe 'Batshit', their follow up to international hit 'Best Friend' and more recent 'Baby I'm A Queen', and which marks Tucker's debut on lead vocals, as "ridiculous and colourful as he is. And we love it."
It's hard not to love the quirky lines of the seductive dancefloor ready electro number, with Halpern's low vocalled addictive line: "Oh you’re bad enough to me."
Sofi Tukker recently announced the first part of the Treehouse World Tour, which kicks off in Washington DC on April 18. Scroll down for the inaugural round of dates.
