easy life has today dropped a brand-new single, ‘OTT,’ a collaboration with New Zealand singer-songwriter, BENEE. Earlier today, the track received its first play as BBC Radio 1’s Hottest Record In The World. The song is the latest preview of the British band’s upcoming album MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE… – set to be released on August 12 via Geffen Records. The album is available to Pre-order/add/save HERE.
‘OTT’ is a song about extremes, moderation, and keeping each other in check. Recorded remotely over lockdown by Murray and New Zealand pop star BENEE, it’s the talk you long to have with someone who’s on a self-destructive streak. While dealing with the album’s central themes of regret, excess and opening up, “like most things easy life,” comments Murray, “there is still that element of optimism: that perhaps with enough care and attention, something can be done. BENEE crushed it – her voice is like water and she’s a real queen of melody.”

The track is coupled with a slacker classic green screen music video from director Theo Watkins. Watch the official video for ‘OTT’ HERE.
‘OTT’ is the latest track to be released off the band’s upcoming immersive project, MAYBE IN ANOTHER LIFE…, which was launched by restless first single ‘BEESWAX’ and announced recently alongside the anthemic ‘DEAR MISS HOLLOWAY’ (which features BROCKHAMPTON’s Kevin Abstract, who made a surprise appearance as easy life’s special guest during their Pyramid Stage debut at Glastonbury).
