Meet The Artists: WATT and CIRKUT

Cirkut and Andrew Watt are two more artists who expressed themselves on Instagram on the release day of Confessions II.

Longtime musical partners and Grammy Award-winning producers and songwriters, Andrew Watt (Andrew Wotman) and Cirkut (Henry Russell Walter) are showing their exceptional genre-crossing versatility co-writing and co-producing two of the album highlights, Danceteria and L.E.S. Girl, two songs that apparently have nothing in common yet they grew out from the same womb, both paying homage to Madonna’s early days in NYC.

In Danceteria, Andrew Watt plays guitar, bass and keyboards, with Cirkut on keyboards and programming. On L.E.S. Girl, Watt is on guitars, keyboards and drums, with Cirkut also on drums and drum programming.

Watt wrote on his Instagram:

@madonna CONFESSIONS II out now… such fun making DANCETERIA AND L.E.S. Girl with the great @cirkut and @stuartpriceofficial M…you continue to inspire us all. Thank you for letting me be a small part of this magnificent album…writing lyrics with you, guitar in hand, is about the happiest I could ever be…EVERYBODY GET UP AND DANCE…

He also shared these four images from the process:
