<\/a><\/p>\nHVMNS is the collaborative effort of Dutch born\u00a0two times Emmy winning\u00a0<\/em>producer\/writer\u00a0Guus Hoevenaars\u00a0\u2013 who has worked with everyone\u2019s favourite, queens of pop, Scissor Sisters \u2013 and Swedish vocalist and songwriter\u00a0Moa Drugge. Guus spent many years searching for the perfect singer and co-writer and found Moa by chance at a basement gig in London where she was performing as a backing vocalist. Lucky for him, and lucky for us as well, because the group\u2019s first release, \u2018Dirt + Grime\u2019, is everything we could have hoped for \u2013 oh, and we\u2019ve got the video premiere.<\/p>\n The track has a lavish soundscape full of bold drums and sweeping string work (courtesy of Q Strings, a classically trained quartet who have lent their talents to Ellie Goulding and Goldfrapp among others). It\u2019s Moa\u2019s powerful vocals, though, that really mark out the song as something special: they reach soaring and powerful heights whilst also exploring subtler and more fragile moments. The video itself was filmed on a secret location in London and features the contemporary dancer Luke Mann, whose tortured yet graceful movements are the perfect foil to the song’s\u00a0lush audio: these guys are definitely one to watch.<\/p>\n
