Peking Duk On Coachella And Their US EP
We caught up with Peking Duk at Coachella and asked about their American plans.

Peking Duk dropped their debut US single “Say My Name” today (July 10) and it’s something of a departure from the smooth electro-house of “High” and “Take Me Over.” The Australian duo embrace their inner-rockers on the hook-filled track, which was inspired by Arctic Monkeys’ 2013 hit “Do I Wanna Know?” Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles explained how the song came together when I caught up with them at Coachella in April.

“[We were] listening to the Arctic Monkeys song ‘Do I Wanna Know?’… and we’re like, ‘Fuck, we should write a song like that’,” Adam recounted. “And then we went back to the house, and we smoked a bit of weed, and the song was written very, very, very quickly. Yeah, like really, really fucking quickly.” You can grab “Say My Name” as an instant download when you pre-order Peking Duk’s debut EP Songs To Sweat To (click here). It features their two previous singles as well as a couple of remixes. Canberra’s finest will support the EP with a North American tour in July. Find out where you can catch them below.
