Australian/English duo HUX release their irresistible new single “Lemonade”, fresh from their forthcoming EP.
Drawing inspiration from the likes of Jason Mraz and John Mayer to create their rich soundscapes, “Lemonade” is filled with sunshine rhythms and smooth guitar licks – a dreamy ode to the end of the summer months. “‘Lemonade’ is about taking the bad alongside the good, and the idea that accepting that we can’t live in a permanent state of happiness is a step in the direction of maintaining it”, the duo explain.
“We had this half-song that we called ‘Honey-Sweet’ which was going nowhere, but we liked that lyric so built the first verse around that. The rest just fell into place with help from producer/writers Alex Charles and Tom Williams. We loved the vibe of the track but also loved the message.”
Drawing on a vast array of influences, it was John Mayer in particular who broadened their musical horizons – allowing them to really appreciate the complexity and captivating nature of good pop music.
