"Catching Feelings" is a song by New Zealand band Drax Project, featuring Six60. The song was written as a collaboration between the bands in 2017, and was released as a single from Drax Project's debut album Drax Project in September 2019. A new version featuring Brooklyn group Phony Ppl was released in July 2021.
The song was a produce of the writing sessions Drax Project and Six60 had in 2017 at Marlon Gerbes' home, after meeting at a New Zealand music festival.[2][3] Six60 members Marlon Gerbes and Matiu Walters gave the band advice, that a song should work well in a stripped-down version, which they applied to "Catching Feelings", as well as their songs "Woke Up Late" (2017) and "Smart Love" (2019).[2]
The piano outro was performed by a high school friend of Shaan Singh's, Leonardo, and the vocal chorus bridge featuring the members of Six60 was recorded in March 2017.[2]
