THE SEEDS OF THE COLLABORATION WERE PLANTED IN 2017 WHEN ANDERSON .PAAK AND BRUNO MARS TOURED TOGETHER ON THE EUROPEAN LEG OF HIS 24K MAGIC WORLD TOUR. ONE LATE-NIGHT JAM SESSION ON THE ROAD UNLOCKED IMMEDIATE CHEMISTRY. JUST BEFORE THE WORLD SLIPPED INTO QUARANTINE, BRUNO CALLED ANDERSON: “REMEMBER THAT IDEA WE HAD BACK IN 2017? LET’S DO IT.” ONE STUDIO SESSION GREW INTO TO A MONTHS-LONG COLLABORATION, CULMINATING THE “SETLIST OF DOOM.” LEGENDARY BOOTSY COLLINS CHRISTENED SILK SONIC AND CAME IN AS THE “SPECIAL GUEST HOST” FOR AN EVENING WITH SILK SONIC, THEIR DEBUT ALBUM.
TO CELEBRATE THE 5 YEAR ANNIVERSARY, THE ALBUM FEATURING 4X GRAMMY-AWARD WINNING “LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN”, HAS BEEN RE-ISSUED WITH A SPECIAL EDITION PACKAGE.
