FLYTE – ” Emily and Me “

Posted: March 21, 2025 in MUSIC

British duo Flyte release LA-inspired single ‘Emily and Me’, written during a 2022 California trip between tour dates. Flyte have shared their new single ‘Emily and Me’, marking their second release of 2025 following last month’s ‘I’m Not There’.

The British duo, comprising Will Taylor and Nick Hill, recorded the track during an intensive two-month writing period in the West Country with BRIT Award-winning producer Ethan Johns, known for his work with Paul McCartney, Ray Lamontagne, and Laura Marling.

“Emily and Me” is a postcard from LA to London from two passively stoned Englishmen driving round in our friend Emily’s Subaru,” Taylor explains. “We wrote the song back in the summer 2022 on a break between touring to see people and write songs in California. There had been fires that year but nothing like what happened this January. A feeling was hanging in the air during that visit, something like bliss but also that a storm might be brewing.”

Alongside their own releases, the pair have been writing for other artists including Holly Humberstone and Sigrid, while expanding their songwriting workshops to include digital experiences for international participants. Their previous collaborators include Laura Marling, Billie Marten, Madison Cunningham, Bombay Bicycle Club, The Staves, and Florence Pugh.
