Sam Fender says Elton John collaboration "will definitely happen at some point"
Sam Fender has confirmed that an Elton John collaboration will "definitely happen at some point," adding, "we want to make something special together."
In a chat with the Daily Star newspaper's Wired column, Fender discussed wanting to work with Elton John after he was unable to take part in John's The Lockdown Sessions album due to having to finish his own album Seventeen Going Under.
Fender said, "It sounds awful to say 'I was too busy to work with Elton', but I needed to finish my album."
"Me and Elton will definitely happen at some point," he continued. "We just need to find time to get into the studio."
He added, "We want to make something special together. I'd love us to make something stripped back, that sounds organic with a band."
