Duran Duran Reunite With Nile Rodgers at Abbey Road Studios

Duran Duran shared a snapshot from Abbey Road Studios saying, “Working with our good friend Nile at Abbey Road Studios this weekend. Stay tuned…”

Nile Rodgers, who’s been behind some of the band’s biggest hits, also shared the moment on his socials, writing, “We had as much fun working yesterday as ever!” The reunion marks the first time Rodgers and Duran Duran have worked together in nearly a decade, following their last collaboration on 2015’s Paper Gods, which featured the funk-infused single “Pressure Off” with Janelle Monáe and cracked the Top 10 on both sides of the Atlantic. The tour begins June 3 in Finland and includes major stops in Amsterdam, Rome, Dublin and the U.K., wrapping in early July. Rodgers, meanwhile, remains one of music’s most decorated producers, with credits spanning David Bowie, Madonna, Daft Punk and more.
