Rising British rock outfit The Wild Things show international drag legend Trixie some love this week, with the release of their stunning remake of the acclaimed singer/songwriters 2018 album track, ‘Red Side of The Moon’.
Having originally appeared on Trixie’s critically acclaimed LP ‘One Stone’, the groups beautiful interpretation of the country inspired ballad places the tracks tender melody front and centre, as the bands singer Sydney Rae White delivers a considered, and emotive vocal performance that’s guaranteed to pull on the heartstrings.
Commenting on the collaboration, Trixie says in a press release: “When I first wrote ‘Red Side of the Moon’ I always imagined it for someone else to sing – probably a girl. I love The Wild Things and I couldn’t believe it when they asked!”
With Rae White adding: “Trixie has been a hero of mine for years, and getting to work with her on a track that means so much to me is one of my biggest highlights in a year choc full of them.”
