Sophie and the Giants return with irresistible new single DNA, an instant club classic featuring the floor- filling production of MEARSY. Listen to “DNA” ft. MEARSY HERE and Watch the Official Lyric Video HERE.
Released on March 10th, the track immediately immerses itself in the throng as Sophie Scott celebrates the life-changing, mood-enhancing power of music itself, evocatively capturing the moment listeners connect with their favourite songs, heart and soul.
“Everyone has music that makes them feel whole, when it resonates so much that everything makes sense and your mind and body becomes lost in the sound, like it’s a part of you,” declares Sophie of the inspiration behind the insistent, intoxicating vibe surging through DNA.
“This song represents that feeling music gives to us,” she adds. “I wrote DNA when I truly fell in love with the music I was making and it defines the beginning of an era for me and an introduction for what is to come.”
Having evolved from Sophie and the Giants’ beginnings as a band to Scott cementing her position as an internationally acclaimed solo star, this collaboration with the always inventive MEARSY ensures Sophie lands right in the heart of the dance floor.
No stranger to finding gold after winning the Olympics for Team GB as a synchronised diver in 2016, Christopher Mears has enjoyed similar success as a producer. Following his first Top 5 success with German superstar Felix Jaehn, MEARSY has now worked and written with the likes of Meduza, Vintage Culture, Tiësto, Alok and Steve Aoki, to name just a few.
Collaborating with Sophie and the Giants was a natural step for the production wizard, as both artists share an affinity and deep understanding of music that crosses a spectrum of genres, giving their tracks a depth and longevity that delivers on the immaculate first impressions they consistently make.
With these elements woven into its fabric, DNA proves not only a fitting celebration of the songs that change our lives but is a transformative, future anthem in its own right.
DNA follows Sophie and the Giants’ 2022 acclaimed summer hit, We Own The Night, and her two collaborations with German Grammy award winner DJ Purple Disco Machine. Having released Hypnotized together in 2020, which has now amassed nearly half-a-billion streams to date, the pair’s follow-up single – last April’s In The Dark – was a Europe-wide Number 1 which enjoyed an extended stint at the summit of the EU-wide APC chart, powering its way to nearly 200 million streams since release.
Following the success of those tracks, Scott also took the new look Sophie and the Giants on the road as she staged a full headline tour across Europe in November. Further live dates, including a number of 2023 summer festival appearances, will be announced soon.
