To commemorate his current tour with Big Freedia, Peter Michel of Hibou crafted a remix of the bounce queen’s “Excuse,” reimagining the original club banger into a gauzy pop dreamscape. The Fader premiered the track, stating, “Hibou’s addition to the track gives ‘Excuse’ a second life. It takes the heavy, bass-oriented original and makes it softer and brighter, with lush synth and airy vocals while maintaining that signature bounce sound.” 

Hibou’s tour with Big Freedia kicked off yesterday at New Orleans’ House of Blues. Following those nine dates, Hibou will continue to tour, including supports dates with EL VY, Metric, and Phantogram.
Hibou is touring in support of its self-titled debut album, out now on Barsuk Records. (Purchase on iTunes).
