LIZ returns w/ SOPHIE collab on cult pop slassic ‘SUNSCREEN’

After nearly a decade of whispers, leaks, and fan speculation, a collaboration between LIZ and the late visionary SOPHIE is finally seeing the light of day. ‘SUNSCREEN’ is the first single from LIZ’s forthcoming full-length album — ushering in a bold new era for the underground pop pioneer.

Originally conceived and recorded with SOPHIE in 2018 at her Nichols Canyon home studio, ‘SUNSCREEN’ has since lived as internet lore: traded in DJ sets, circulating through YouTube and SoundCloud rips, and sparking countless forum threads. Now, the track has been lovingly completed in collaboration with SOPHIE’s brother Benny Long and vocal engineer Suzy Shinn. The result is a radiant, sun-soaked pop anthem that pays tribute to SOPHIE’s groundbreaking artistry while signaling LIZ’s triumphant return.

Accompanying the single is a vibrant new music video filmed on location in Mykonos, Greece. First imagined in a treatment by SOPHIE and Renata Raksha as a vision of pool splashes and pop glamour, the concept came to life under the direction of James Orlando—brought full circle in a sparkling, sun-soaked pop fantasy.
