What do you get when you combine the talents of Gotye, Kirin J Callinan and noughties pop-punk frontman Martin Johnson? Well, this.
The ex-Boys Like Girls singer recruited both big-name Aussie musos for the very 80’s vibe-filled debut single for his new project The Night Game, dubbed ‘The Outfield’.
The unapologetically cheesy retro anthem features Wally ‘Gotye’ De Backer doing backing vocals in the chorus and Callinan filling in on guitars.
Hilariously, Gotye’s vocal tracking session was apparently so exuberant that it ticked off some locals.

No word on how the ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’ singer’s new electronic concept album is coming along, but this new tune comes after he lent his talents to a Bibio song last year so he seems to be loving himself some collabs.
Give it a listen below.
