thewayneIn support of Ukraine, David Gilmour teamed up with Nick Mason to record Hey Hey Rise Up with Ukrainian rocker Andriy Khlyvnyuk, front man for the Ukrainian band Boombox (there is also an American band of the same name) who were on tour when the war broke out. He headed back to his country to defend it and released a video of him singing The Red Viburnum In The Meadow, which Gilmour's daughter-in-law, a Ukrainian, sent him. David knew Andriy from a previous concert series formed to help Belarusian artists, and contacted him to get this song done. It was recorded in Gilmour's home studio in England.
This is the first original Floyd recording since 1994's The Division Bell. Floyd's last album, The Endless River, was compiled from unused recordings from The Division Bell sessions. So this is the first original Floyd music in over 30 years.
