"I Won't Let You Walk Away" is a song recorded by American DJs Mako and singer Madison Beer. It was released on Feb 24, 2015, via Ultra Records.[1]
Background
The song is a vocal version of the instrumental single by Mako called "Sunburst" released in 2014.[2] Alex Seaver of Mako said in an interview "I had bought this $45 Fender guitar in Glendale and just started tracking some stuff, and that turned into “Sunburst” — the instrumental. We put that up just as a nice, fun summer tune and everybody was just like we want to hear a vocal over it. We had never considered it. The second they said it, it seemed like, 'Oh, this would be a great idea'. Why not? We knew what kind of song we wanted at that point, because the track sounds a certain way. As soon as we got Madison on it, it came to life really easily because the sound is perfect for her voice, for the style, the writing and the track. It was just a great fit.".[2]
Music video
The official music video was uploaded by Ultra Records' YouTube channel on 24 February 2015.[3]
Speaking in an interview about the music video, Logan Light of Mako said "I don’t remember exactly how it started, but I know we wanted to do a lyric video of some sort. I don’t remember how the idea came to us, but when they showed us that kind of Matrix-y type thing we thought it was super cool. We kind of had some idea of what we were gonna do for certain shots walking in, and then a lot of it we just had a lot of fun there. It was a good 12-hour day on set. We had a lot of fun with it. Some of the impromptu things like Alex jumping over the couch in one of the shots, and playing with the glow sticks to spell out the letters were all kind of impromptu things that came out really cool in the end. We’re really happy with the way it came out. Patrick Tracy directed it, he was a great time and it all worked out really well".[4]
