It’s no mystery that Christina Aguilera is one POWERFUL singer; but for her upcoming album, she’s been striving for a much-softer sound, teaming up with one of her favorite bands – Ladytron.
Ladytron founder, Daniel Hunt, said: “She’s an absolutely amazing singer but one of the things she talked about was working with a softer vocal sound, so I think the stuff we do will feature simpler melodies.”
The 28-year-old singer hired the band to help her achieve her new sound after she fell in love with the British quartet’s music. Daniel, 29, said: “We first heard that we were one of Christina’s favorite bands last summer. We were thrilled. So we went over to Los Angeles to meet her in December where she identified the type of Ladytron songs that she liked. We were impressed because she had a real deep knowledge of our music – album tracks, not just the singles.”
The band plans on finishing off some more tracks for Aguilera’s still-untitled new release this March, relatively fresh on the heels of her Greatest Hits Target-exclusive album.
