Fcukers are Shanny Wise and Jackson Walker Lewis, a two-person band from New York making music that draws on dance and electronic sounds. In March they released an album called Ö, and they have built a reputation partly through live touring, including shows opening for Harry Styles.
The current news is that they are following up the album with NüYork, an EP due out on 30 July that takes three songs from Ö and hands them to other producers to remix. The people doing the reworking are established New York DJs and producers, namely Eli Escobar, Justin Strauss and Junior Sanchez, which situates Fcukers within the city's established club and dance music scene rather than as outsiders to it.
This matters because remix EPs like this are often used by newer acts to build credibility with an established scene and reach new audiences through respected collaborators. The release also coincides with an expanded touring schedule, including dates supporting RÜFÜS DU SOL, suggesting the band's live and studio profile are growing together.
