Under the moniker Boss Selection, AKA LA producer Sunny Levine’S track “Kellen Winslow”, off his upcoming new album Volume One – this time featuring Pete Yorn. Sunny describes the origin as a weird and amusing coincidence:

“We were trying decipher what some of the words sounded like, I asked “Did you say Kelley Winslow? Who’s that?” and Pete was like “…Yeah it sounds like I’m saying Kellen Winslow, he’s a football player from the 70s/80s…” That made such nice and strange sense to me. “Hold me back Kellen Winslow, when its time I’ll let you know…” I love that imagery so much and the line “with a body like that, it’s a shame you wear clothes.” I had that written on a little piece of paper for years and never really felt comfortable singing it myself, but with Pete’s voice and character it sounded so right. Tickles me every time I hear it…”

Volume One (out December 8th), written and recorded by Levine, features guests, including Rashida Jones, South African icon Hugh Masekela, R&B singer Brenda Russell, ORELIA, and more. The 13 track album is a curated collection that trips the light fantastic, playing much like the mixtape you always wished someone would make you.
