WHETHAN: a star-studded debut
from Interviews with Richard Kingsmill Hosted by Australian Broadcasting Corporation
With the release of his Fantasy album, Whethan has surrounded himself with all the alternative artists he loved growing up. Having released music since 2016, the now 21yo Chicago producer started pretty young. He quickly cemented a working relationship with Oliver Tree, but he also collaborated early on with the likes of Charli XCX. Working with big names didn’t phase the teen producer. And he’s continued that spirit onto his debut album, asking many of the artists that he was a fan of to work with him on new songs. The release of Fantasy was delayed due to COVID-19. But now the full album is with us, we can see the entire guestlist and it includes The Wombats, Grouplove, RL Grime. K.Flay, The Knocks, Chrome Sparks. STRFKR, as well as Oliver Tree. Richard Kingsmill spoke to Whethan about some of these collaborations, and the outlook he has towards how he works.
