Kris and Elles have maintained a close working relationship over the years, with Kris directing several of Elles’ music videos and the pair often comparing notes during their ascent through the gauntlet that is the music industry. On new single “Burn It The Ground,” the chemistry between the two is evident, as they finally release something they have written together away from any industry pressures, during Elles’ several trips to Devon. “This genuinely feels like such a treat to be collaborating with the one and only Kris Barras,” says Elles. “I’m so excited that we are finally on a track together and I was invited to be a part of this really special project!” Once Kris, Elles and producer & multi-instrumentalist Josiah J Manning nailed the demo for the new song, the Hollow Souls band tracked the instrumental live in the studio, with everything bar Elles’ vocal. Hollow Souls resident vocalist Phoebe Jane’s backing vocals and guitar solo overdubs were tracked in one take. Kris commented, “I’ve been friends with Elles for a good few years now and it’s been great to see her career go from strength to strength. Fans have often asked when we are going to record a song together. Now seemed like the perfect time. It’s a perfect project for Elles to be involved in. She absolutely nailed the vocal on this track, and we had great fun writing the lyrics together.” Hollow Souls anthology of singles already demonstrates real alchemy, with their guest stars ranging from American guitar hero Jared James Nichols, Jon ‘Marv’ Harvey of Monster Truck and Chris Tapp of The Cold Stares. Hollow Souls secret set on the main stage at this summer’s Maid of Stone Festival set the incendiary tone for this Autumn’s first ever Hollow Souls headline tour, boasting 20 dates across the UK with special guest, Troy Redfern. Tickets for Hollow Souls’ Autumn UK tour are available from The Gig Cartel. “Burn It The Ground” promises to be the fourth and final single to drop prior to Hollow Souls’ hotly anticipated eponymous debut EP Hollow Souls which is released on 10th October on limited edition 10” vinyl, CD and digital.
