Joy Orbison has teamed up with emerging Southend talent Joe James for their new single ‘Bastard,’ released through XL Recordings. The release is accompanied by a striking visual directed by Josh Renaut.

The collaboration emerged naturally during an impromptu studio session in west London. According to Orbison, the creative chemistry was instant, with James bringing a fresh perspective that pushed both artists into unexplored territory.

The track’s authenticity shines through in its one-take vocal recording. James, perched on a studio sofa, delivered his verses with a natural, unaffected flow that perfectly complements the production’s moody undertones.

Orbison describes the track as a rare moment where the magic was immediately evident. The producer found himself repeatedly listening to the track on his journey home, drawn in by James’ storytelling and the track’s atmosphere.
