Luke Hemmings on Tapping Into the Melancholy Sounds of Damon Albarn & Cocteau Twins

Luke Hemmings joins Kyle Meredith to talk about his new single, “Shakes”. The 5 Seconds of Summer member tells us why it was time to do another solo set, how his writing changes when not with the band, continuing to work with producer Sammy White, and how being in his late 20s with a sense of loneliness drives many of the new songs he’s writing. In fact, Hemmings says that he’s tapped into the melancholy sounds of Damon Albarn, LCD Soundsystem, and Cocteau Twins for inspiration. The Australian singer also discusses 5SOS’s most recent tour and bringing out the giant dice that dictates which deep track they would play, as well as the group’s plans to reconvene later in the year to start working on the next LP.
