Screwdriver: New track from the Artist Known Now and 4ever as Prince
Screwdriver, a rocking, driving new track from Prince. This is the official lyric track. Great stuff. Check it out. Minnesota produces some amazing talent. And dig the cool style.
From The Guardian, the following notes on the recent activity from Prince, including his new backup band, 3rd Eye Girl:
"A week or so ago a mysterious new YouTube account was created under the name 3rdEyeGirl. The name matches a Twitter handle started at the beginning of the month that features the following bio: "International Art Thief. Everything you think is true. Underground. Soon to be above." Across both platforms a number of brand new recordings from Prince have started to emerge, which is a bit odd considering Prince is notoriously anti-YouTube and is known for blocking unauthorised recordings (he once angered Radiohead by blocking live footage of him covering the band's Creep at Coachella).
So are these authorised accounts? 3rdEyeGirl are rumoured to be Prince's new backing band (guitarist Donna Grantis, drummer Hannah Ford and bassist Ida Nielsen)..."
