They featured on Clean Bandit's last single from their 2015 debut album New Eyes alongside Sean Bass, entitled "Stronger".

The song was originally intended to have Olly Alexander, until the group replaced him for the official version with Bass and Newell.

They also featured on The Knocks' "Collect My Love", which formed part of their 2015 extended play So Classic and later their 2016 debut album 55.

Later after the single was released, they began working behind the scenes with DJ Cassidy, Nile Rodgers and Jess Glynne on the song "Kill the Lights".

Newell soon embarked on an American tour as a guest act with Adam Lambert, performing some of the songs from their extended play.
