David Gilmour has revealed another taste of his upcoming solo album: a cover of the Montgolfier Brothers’ “Between Two Points,” featuring his daughter, Romany.
On the track, Romany takes the ruminating vocals over a mournful harp, while Gilmour later delivers a guitar solo.

David Gilmour has unveiled a new preview from his upcoming comeback album, Luck and Strange. “Between Two Points” sees Gilmour reimagine The Montgolfier Brothers’ 1999 song with his 22-year-old daughter, Romany Gilmour, on vocals and harp.
“I’ve had that song on my playlist since it was released. More recently I mentioned it to one or two people: I assumed that it had been a hit, but no one knew it,” Gilmour said in a statement. “I asked Romany to give it a go… I realised that Romany has exactly the right sort of vulnerability and youth for the song.”
