BANNERS Strikes a Chord with Soulful Duet ‘Perfectly Broken’ featuring Lily Meola
The captivating duet is a precursor to BANNERS’ upcoming album All Back to Mine.
Award-winning pop sensation BANNERS, also known as Michael Nelson, unveils his latest single, ‘Perfectly Broken (Duet Version),’ featuring the soulful vocals of Lily Meola. The captivating duet, a precursor to BANNERS’ upcoming album All Back to Mine, out on April 19th, dives into the realm of self-image and societal expectations. The track is a call for embracing imperfections and recognizing the unique beauty within ourselves.
Here’s BANNERS talking about the track:
“I love Lily’s vocals on ‘Perfectly Broken.’ It’s a song about two halves coming together to create one beautiful thing and that’s what she’s done. I didn’t know the song needed it until I heard her voice but now I think ‘Perfectly Broken’ would feel a little lost without her. She’s brought a beautiful, raw emotion that adds a whole new layer of meaning. I love the new dimension she’s brought to it. I was already really proud of ‘Perfectly Broken’ and now I love it even more.”
Lily Meola reciprocates the praise, describing BANNERS as a “wonderful artist” and expressing excitement about singing on one of his songs. She adds, “BANNERS is such a wonderful artist, so getting to sing on one of his songs was very exciting for me. This one in particular feels like it belongs in a movie. It’s so cinematic and his voice is just the crème de la crème.”
‘Perfectly Broken’ is out now. All Back to Mine is out on April 19th.
