Connection to Sam Sparro

Felix Bloxsom and Sam Sparro attended the same elementary school in Sydney and developed a strong friendship. Their families shared a musical heritage, as Felix’s father and Sam’s grandfather performed together in local jazz ensembles. Bloxsom played drums on every track that required percussion on Sparro’s sophomore album, Return to Paradise, and crafted a remix of "Shades of Grey" for its subsequent release. The two artists reunited on February 14, 2014, to collaborate on Plastic Plates’ single "Stay in Love".
