The pair\u2019s debut single for Capitol Records, \u201cRing the Alarm,\u201d is out now in tandem with an Adam Smith-directed video.<\/p>\n<p>AURORA previously guested on the song \u201cEve of Destruction\u201d from the Chems\u2019 Grammy-winning 2019 album <em>No Geography<\/em>. Rowlands later produced portions of AURORA\u2019s 2024 LP <em>What Happened to the Heart<\/em>?, leading to the new collaboration.
