Sean Ono Lennon and James McCartney, the sons of legendary Beatles icons John Lennon and Sir Paul McCartney, have joined forces to release their first track, Primrose Hill.
On April 12, 2024, James announced the release of the single new song on X, which he had co-written with Sean. He expressed his excitement and hinted that the duo would continue sharing the music. James noted:
"'Primrose Hill' is here! Today, I am so very excited to share my latest song, co-written by my good friend @seanonolennon. With the release of this song, it feels like we're really getting the ball rolling, and I am so excited to continue to share music with you."
The Beatles were an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960, comprising four members, including John Lennon as a guitarist and Sir Paul McCartney as bass guitarist. The band was most influential in its time, with hits like I Want To Hold Your Hand, Something, and Come Together, which are still tuned today.
Primrose Hill by Lennon & McCartney heirs
Sean Ono Lennon, son of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, and James McCartney, son of Paul McCartney and Linda McCartney, have forged their paths in the music industry.
Moreover, this unprecedented musical partnership brings together their genetic legacies, as their co-written song, Primrose Hill, stands as proof of their talents and shared heritage. Paul McCartney wrote on Facebook, supporting the duo:
"My son James has a new song out called 'Primrose Hill' - check it out! And lots of love to Sean Ono Lennon, who co-wrote the song."
Meanwhile, James, explaining the vision behind his single song on X, suggested that he had a childhood vision of lovely summer days and sees the new song as the beginning of the journey to find true love. He stated:
"I had a vision as a child in Scotland, on what was a lovely summers day. Letting go, I saw my true love and saviour in my mind's eye. Primrose Hill is about getting the ball rolling with me & finding this person."
On X, a few days before the release, James shared a sneak peek video of his single song, which his sister, Mary McCartney, filmed. In an eleven-second video, he sings his newly released song while playing piano. He noted:
"Not long to go now! My latest single 'Primrose Hill' comes out on Friday. My lovely sister Mary McCartney filmed a sneak peek of what's coming. Stay tuned for more."
James McCartney has also announced the video contest for couples of all ages. The top-selected couples will be able to feature James McCartney's official music video for Primrose Hill, as posted on X.
In 2012, with the BBC, James was asked if they would form "The Beatles: The Next Generation" with a star's son. James hinted that Sean showed interest in paring up. He stated:
"I don't think Zak wants to do it. Maybe Jason would. I'd be up for it. Sean seemed to be into it, and Dhani seemed to be into it. I'd be happy to do it."
The interview further reads:
"I don't really think I am quite as good as The Beatles or my father, but there are definitely influences."
Primrose Hill begins an exciting new chapter for the duo, Sean Ono Lennon and James McCartney, which they aim to continue. The song is now available on James's official website.
Sean has released three solo albums, five with his mother, Ono, and three with the psychedelic rock band Claypool Lennon Delirium. He was also credited with Lana Del Rey's 2017 release, Lust for Life.
In Ono's 1981 album Season of Glass, Sean's first appearance was recorded. In 2020, Sean hosted a special BBC Radio show to honor his father's 80th birthday. He shared:
"I honestly do worry about crying because sometimes I think when I talk about certain songs that Dad wrote, they're just so emotional."
James McCartney started his career in the late 1990s but did not release any recordings until a decade later. His most recent release before Primrose Hill is Beautiful, released a single this year in February.
