Kasabian will release a new collaborative single with Calvin Harris.

The track will not only be streaming, but there are also pre-order options available for a red 12″ single, red marble 7″ and CD. You can listen to an extended two minute preview below.

Off the back of Serge’s collaboration with Måneskin’s Thomas Raggi, it looks as though we could be getting a new track featuring Serge – This time with Scottish DJ Calvin Harris.

A recording of the track from a performance in China, which can be seen below, has surfaced online and features clear vocals from Serge Pizzorno. Very little is known about the track, though Calvin Harris did post a clearer short clip of the track from a performance in Dubai on Instagram.

Whilst usually this would be pure speculation that it’s Serge’s vocals on this track, Calvin’s video was shared on Tim Carter’s Instagram story, which all but confirms this is Serge singing on this track.

Stay tuned for more info when it drops!

Kasabian will re-issue their first two albums, Kasabian and Empire on 30 January 2026.

Both albums will be pressed to 12″ vinyl, with the debut being pressed to double-disc, whilst Empire will be a double-sided single disc press.
