**HAIM Reflects on Friendship with Kesha and Creative Freedom in Anticipation of New Album “I quit”**

LOS ANGELES, CA – The Haim sisters, Este, Danielle, and Alana, are gearing up for the release of their fourth studio album, “I quit,” and took time to reminisce about their journey with Kesha and their approach to music. In a recent interview with Kesha for Spotify’s Countdown To series, the trio delved into their long-standing friendship and the fearless attitude Kesha instilled in them during their formative years.

The sister’s friendship with Kesha began in their teenage years and their connection was immediate. They recall sneaking into festivals and even serving as Kesha’s backup dancers in the early days of Coachella, during the time that Coachella parties were, as Alana described “like 25 people showing up at a random house with a pool, and these people honestly just looking for free alcohol.”

Beyond their shared adventures, the sisters credit Kesha with teaching them to embrace a “no fear” mentality that has shaped their lives and careers.

“We just ‘Yes and’-ed our way through life together,” Este says.

The new album, “I quit,” was inspired by the sisters’ shared experience of being single and Alana and Danielle living together, which brought a wave of nostalgia. Musically, the album also benefitted from their collaboration with producer Rostam Batmanglij (formerly of Vampire Weekend).

“There’s an air within his productions that I’ve always loved — a lightness and a simplicity that I’ve always wanted our music to sound like. With him, it’s not all about adding a lot. It’s about stripping away. I think he’s just so good at that, leaving room.” Danielle explained.

The sisters also highlighted Danielle’s growth as a producer, pointing to her increasing involvement in the production of their albums. “I feel like she’s just amassed so much knowledge,” Alana said.

“I quit” is set to release soon.
