Yorke Teams Up with Japan’s indigo la End for Stunning Rework of ‘sorry in advance’

Australian alt-pop artist Yorke has unveiled a captivating rework of her K-pop-inspired single sorry in advance, teaming up with acclaimed Japanese rock band indigo la End. The collaboration arrives fresh off Yorke’s debut performances in Japan, including a special live rendition of the track with the band at their sold-out 5,000-capacity Tokyo show at the International Forum Hall.

The partnership blossomed unexpectedly after Yorke discovered indigo la End had been using her song like in the movies as their tour walk-on track.

“I found out through YouTube comments that indigo la End had been using my song ‘like in the movies’ as their walk on song for their tour, and I messaged them on Instagram to thank them. We ended up staying in contact and on a whim, I sent Enon the ‘sorry in advance’ demo. To my surprise, he wanted the band to jump on the track, and they went away and made it their own. Fast forward to now, where we get to play it together in Tokyo, which is even more special. I really love how they transformed the track, and I’ll be forever grateful to Enon and the band for embracing and introducing me to a whole new Japanese audience.” – Yorke. 

“The connection that came about by using Yorke’s song ‘like in the movies’ as the SE for the tour’s appearance has brought us here. This is the second collaboration with an overseas artist. Please listen to ‘sorry in advance’ dyed in indigo colours.” – Enon Kawatani, indigo la End.

Fans can expect even more from this creative synergy, with a music video shot in Tokyo set for release soon. The rework arrives as Yorke’s latest EP unfinished business garners glowing reviews, cementing her as one of Australia’s most exciting rising alt-pop voices.
