John Lennon and Paul McCartney’s sons team up for new single


James McCartney’s acoustic ballad Primrose Hill, co-written with Sean Ono Lennon, was drawn from childhood vision in Scotland

Primrose Hill, a single by Paul McCartney’s son James, has been co-written with Sean Ono Lennon: an acoustic ballad with a shuffling backbeat and ruminative guitar soloing. Lennon went on to collaborate with artists as varied as Albert Hammond Jr, Soulfly, Mark Ronson and Jurassic 5, and has released further solo work alongside film scoring. Following the release of what was billed as the final new Beatles song, Now & Then – which topped the UK charts in November – and the three-part Peter Jackson-directed documentary Get Back, a reissue of the 1970 film Let It Be has been announced to air on Disney+ in May.
