California singer-songwriter Madison Cunningham has teamed up with Fleet Foxes’ Robin Pecknold for a new song. Listen to “Wake” below.
Cunningham, according to a press release, first met Pecknold backstage at one of her shows. “Fleet Foxes’ melodies and songs have inspired me for as long as I can remember,” she stated. “I feel quite lucky to have been able to experience his genius up close.”
Pecknold also discussed working with Cunningham: “Working with Madison on this was a humbling and enlightening experience! We did maybe 10 takes where she played and sang perfectly every time and I struggled to keep up. She’s a force and an inspiration; thank you so much Madison for pushing things forward so masterfully.”
“Wake” is the second single from Cunningham’s recently announced new album, Ace, which is out October 10 via Verve Forecast. She previously released “My Full Name.” See the album details below.
Cunningham will support Ace on tour next year. The shows take place across North America in January, March, and April. See the dates below.
In 2023, Cunningham won the Grammy Award for Best Folk Album for Revealer. The next year, she and Andrew Bird covered the entirety of Buckingham Nicks for an album they called Cunningham Bird.
