Mykki Blanco and Devendra Banhart have teamed up for new track called “You Will Find It.” As the press release notes, the serene song was produced by FaltyDL and it was originally meant to be an interlude on the forthcoming LP that Mykki has been recording over the last few years.
Mykki says of the collaboration:
I wanted to make a song with Devendra. I wanted to make a song with one of my heroes just like a few years ago when I made a song with Kathleen Hanna. I had met him a few times now playing the same festivals in Europe and he was just open and it felt like a full circle moment. I could honestly say a lot about this song – I mean Devendra not only sings on the record, but he plays. He’s not just a feature, he is now in the blood of the song, he’s a part of the composition. It felt right to release this song now, I felt like I had this capsule of really good energy and I needed to release it now and not wait but let the vibe be felt now in this really anxious moment – so it can feel like a light hearted mini mediation amidst all the current noise.
