“Mod and I had an immediate connection from the first day in the studio,” says Avril Lavigne. “He’s an incredible artist and producer. This is the first of many. Proud of what we made with Flames.”
“Avril Lavigne has one of my favorite voices in music,” says MOD SUN. “It’s so strong and confident, yet filled with emotion and one-of-a-kind inflections that only her voice can do. This song holds a lot more weight than meets the eye. There’s a very deep message within it.”
“Flames” is the third single from MOD SUN’s upcoming album, due out February 12, 2021 via Big Noise, with production from John Feldmann (5 Seconds of Summer, The Used, Panic At the Disco).
