Oh yeah, we're feeling this...

It looks like Amy Shark is already at work on the follow-up to last year's ARIA-winning The Night Thinker EP and has hit the studio with one of her musical heroes: Blink-182's Mark Hoppus.

"I’ve idolized Blink-182 my whole life," the 'Adore' hit-maker wrote on socials recently with a photo of herself and the singer-bassist. Now she's followed it up with a tweet that makes it clear that there was more than just a meet-up between the two.

Hoppus is best known as the co-frontman of the pop punk icons but beyond Blink-182, he also has a sizeable career as a producer, including credits for Fall Out Buy, New Found Glory, and most recently, a Scottish alt-rock group called PAWS.

A noted Blink-182 fan, Amy Shark told triple j about hanging with the band's former guitarist Tom DeLonge during her Take 5 and The Chainsmokers (catch up on the Take 5 podcast). She also said she had a wealth of new material to work on but was more likely to work with artists behind the desk than collaborate with artists on the mic.

“I've been on such a writing binge… right now I’ve got so much to say. So many songs that I want to release, so I don’t see the point in going and working with other people... but right now, I love working with producers," she said at the time.
