Drax Project team up with underground duo imugi for new single 'Solace'!

Multi-award-winning kiwi band Drax Project have teamed up with underground duo, imugi for the brand-new single ‘Solace’!

Making it in the music industry is tough at the best of times, and while it’s hard to quantify the impact of COVID-19 on the industry, it’s no exaggeration to say that Kiwi artists have been doing it tougher than usual.

In recognition of this, as a brand that champions the bold in pursuing their passions, Tiger has partnered with multi-award-winning Kiwi band Drax Project to help uncover a talented emerging local band hoping to break into the industry in this tough climate.

As part of this project, dubbed Tiger Uncover, Drax Project collaborated with and mentored Auckland-based up-and-coming electronic duo, imugi, with the aim of defying conventions and helping to catapult them onto the national stage.

On the collaboration process, Drax Project says “We've always really enjoyed collaboration with other artists and the fresh ideas they bring to the table. It's always a learning process and regardless of experience, when everyone brings an open attitude to a session the learning ends up going both ways.”

“Sessions with young artists always make us think of our first session with SIX60. We were just starting out and they were SIX60, but they made us feel really comfortable and treated us like equals. They made us believe that we can all achieve our dreams, and we try and pass on that positive energy to anyone we work with,” says Drax Project.
