DYLAN collaborates with Bastille on new single 'Liar, Liar'

Following on from the release of her highly-praised debut mixtape 'The Greatest Thing I'll Never Learn' last year, DYLAN has now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Liar, Liar' sees her collaborate with Bastille's Dan Smith for the release, and comes accompanied by a brilliant new video, directed by Charlie Sarsfield.

Speaking about the new offering, DYLAN said, “We'd written 9 songs that week and I was convinced I’d burnt myself out. Dan (Bastille) arrived on the Friday morning and I presented the very last idea in my head, which was literally just the 'liar liar liar liar' part of the song, and everything came to form quite quickly from there.

"The song is about deception from someone that you put your full trust in. When it came to recording the vocals, I very sheepishly suggested Dan recorded the second verse, just in case he wanted to be a part of it, which luckily he ended up doing! What is so lovely about this song is it was written a couple of months ago, in a matter of hours, with no pre-plan on it being a feature. Normally songs take huge amounts of time to see the light of day, but this one managed to slip through the cracks very quickly, with one of my favourite artists being a part of it.”

While Dan added, “I had the best, best time making this song with DYLAN and everyone. We were all dancing ‘round the studio like idiots the whole day, it was well fun (I’m not a dancing round the studio kind of person).”
