Groove Armada: 'Will Young is brilliant'

Groove Armada have described recent collaborator Will Young as "brilliant".

The duo revealed that they were impressed with Young's vocals when they teamed up with him on new track 'History'.

"The song we did called 'History' is a kind of Bronski Beat homage," Andy Cato told the Daily Star.

"I had a few nights out with Will in Ibiza and he's just a brilliant singer, but obviously he does his commercial stuff which isn't exactly what we do.

"But I found if you treat his voice in a diff­erent way and put it in a totally different context, it sounds great."

Cato said that he admires the 'Leave Right Now' singer's versatility and revealed that Groove Armada are planning to work on his upcoming new album.

"He's asked for some more backing tracks so we’ll do that," Cato added.

"There's all sorts of stuff he can do, I think he could be a real George Michael type of quality recording artist."

Groove Armada released new album Black Light today.
