Chief Executive Officer, Audemars Piguet
To mark the 150th anniversary of Audemars Piguet, RAYE and Mark Ronson embarked on a collaborative journey that culminated in the creation and release of an original track.
Titled “Suzanne,” the track celebrates heritage and family spirit, blending the sounds of musical instruments with digital technology to create a groovy melody, beautifully enhanced by RAYE’s stunning vocals.
Spontaneously titled "Suzanne" by RAYE, the name carries a particular resonance for Mark, and also for Audemars Piguet, echoing Suzanne Audemars, a direct ancestor of the Audemars and Piguet families whose story remained unknown until earlier this year.
Put your headphones on and get ready to experience "Suzanne", the exclusive APxMusic track.
Audemars Piguet is delighted to welcome RAYE as the newest friend of the brand – a classically trained musician known for her ability to blend traditional and progressive musical influences. Winning a record-breaking six Brit Awards in 2024, including Best Artist, Album, and Song, RAYE made history by becoming the most decorated artist at a single ceremony. Amongst the UK’s top songwriters and one of world’s most streamed artists, she is the first woman ever to win Songwriter of the Year, cementing her status as a true icon in the music industry.
In addition to her genre-defying approach and artistic versatility, RAYE shares Audemars Piguet’s deep sense of family spirit, multicultural outlook, and dedication to craft
Music is my chosen purpose; it fuels my passion and dedication to create. I find inspiration from artists whose craft is so alive that their works remain timeless even after they’ve passed. Making “Suzanne” with Mark Ronson was a kind of miracle and discovering the song’s underlying connection with the brand’s history was mind-blowing! I’m truly honoured to be working with AP and the legendary Mark Ronson. I love this song and am so proud of it… it feels like everything was meant to be.
