Pink Floyd to release newly recorded single with vocals by Ukrainian singer

British rock band Pink Floyd has announced that a newly recorded single under the group's banner, 'Hey Hey Rise Up', will come out on Friday.

According to Variety, the lead vocals of the song will not be by David Gilmour but rather a Ukrainian singer, whose cappella vocals from an Instagram post shot in Kyiv's Sofiyskaya Square have been set to music by the veteran band.

The music for the new song was recorded on March 30 by longtime members Gilmour and Nick Mason, along with longtime bass player Guy Pratt and keyboardist Nitin Sawhney.

The vocalist grafted into the new Pink Floyd track is Andriy Khlyvnyuk of the Ukrainian band Boombox.
