It's fair to say that by now, Nathan Dawe knows one of a banger from the other.
This summer, Nathan's earworm track 21 Reasons with Ella Henderson became his second UK Top 10 single, and seemed to be one of the anthems of the hottest summer on record.
Now, Nathan is back again, this time recruiting pop star on the rise Talia Mar (the voice behind Sigala's un-official Love Island anthem Stay The Night, which peaked just outside the Top 10 at Number 11) for Sweet Lies, a confectionate, old-school garage banger heavily inspired by the classic Sweet Like Chocolate by Shanks & Bigfoot.
"It's something that's been in the works for a while," Nathan tell us over the phone while preparing for the song's release. "I've been testing it in front of live crowds and it's worked really well. The time is right after 21 Reasons, it's bringing a summer banger into the winter."
Listen to Sweet Lies below now.
Nathan and Talia also seem like the perfect match on the track, her effervescent vocals perfectly matching the throwback vibe, proving (alongside the success of Stay The Night) that this is an upcoming pop girlie to keep an eye on.

"The record speaks for itself," Nathan says. "She completely smashed it. [Talia and I] always said that when the time was right, we'd work together. We're both buzzing with the outcome."
Nathan's also gearing up for the biggest live performance of the year so far, as he takes his annual
