The French indie rock band took to their official X/Twitter account to share a photo of a billboard in what appears to be Los Angeles. The billboard features a red sports car in the middle of it with a giant phone on top of the sign. The bottom of the sign reads “Kavinsky. Angèle, Phoenix Nightcall.”

A phone number is also featured at the top of the sign. The caption of the post read: “We have something to tell you. Call us now on +1 (901) 673-5822. Upon calling the number, fans are treated to a chat between Angèle and Phoenix frontman Thomas Mars. “The song is ready, do you want to hear it?” Mars is heard asking Angèle to which she replies: “Yes of course, lets go.” Mars continues: “Okay cool let me add Kavinsky to the call right now,” before a snippet of the track begins to play.

The trio teamed up at the 2024 Paris Olympics closing ceremony to perform their remix of the French electro-pop pioneer’s 2010 song. ‘Nightcall’ was produced with Daft Punk‘s Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and mixed by electronic artist Sebastian. It featured vocals by  Lovefoxxx, the lead singer of Brazilian band CSS and was used in the title sequence of the 2011 film Drive which starred Ryan Gosling and Carrey Mulligan.

Lupe Fiasco, Childish Gambino, Vinny Cha$e & Kid Art, Will Young and The Weeknd have all sampled the track and London Grammar covered the song on their 2013 debut LP ‘If You Wait’.

At the closing ceremony for the Olympics, ‘Nightcall’ broke the record to become the most Shazamed song ever in a single day. The track sat tight at the top of the Top 200 Global chart on Shazam and, at time of writing, had 6,921,000 Shazams on the app. The most Shazamed song of all time remains as Tones And I’s 2019 viral track ‘Dance Monkey’.

Back in 2022, Kavinsky spoke to NME about the huge success of ‘Nightcall’, and opened up about what to expect from his second album, ‘Reborn’. He also confirmed news that a new collaboration with The Weeknd was on the way.

“After the sudden success of ‘Nightcall’, I didn’t really want to record again at that moment. I sensed some pressure; I was scared. I was scared to imagine what my music was going to be after this success,” he said. “I took two steps back and started to imagine what I was going to record after that, at my own pace. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to do next.”

“It allowed me to breathe some fresh air; it allowed me to think and it allowed people to forget about me for a little bit so that when I felt ready to return, I could perhaps try new things.”
