London-based artist MARINA has enlisted our very own Beach Bunny to provide a remix for her single "I Love You But You Love Me More". This take features an original verse from the band’s leader Lili Trifilio.

When asked about this opportunity Trifilio had this to say; “When I was in high school, Marina changed everything. I wouldn’t be doing music today if it wasn’t for her. She’s by far one of my biggest inspirations. It’s such an honor and privilege to be a part of this, especially on a song that hits so close to home.”
