(billboard.com) The announcement came 10 days after Madonna joined Carpenter onstage at Coachella in Indio, California, on April 17. Billboard said they performed a mashup of “Juno” and “Vogue,” plus “Like a Prayer,” before previewing the new track. (billboard.com) (usatoday.com) Billboard reported Carpenter reposted the announcement to her Instagram Story with a short audio teaser. In the snippet, Madonna says, “Bring it, Sabrina,” before Carpenter sings the chorus. (billboard.com) The single also slots into Madonna’s next album campaign. Billboard reported “Bring Your Love” will arrive ahead of *Confessions II*, the follow-up to her 2005 album *Confessions on a Dance Floor*. (billboard.com) Billboard said Madonna’s team has already put out “I Feel So Free” from the same project, but not as the official lead single. That makes the Carpenter duet the formal start of the album rollout. (billboard.com) Onstage at Coachella, Madonna told the crowd it had been 20 years since her 2006 festival appearance, when she performed material from *Confessions on a Dance Floor* in the Sahara tent. Billboard described the Carpenter set as a “full circle moment” for that history. (billboard.com) Now the festival cameo is becoming a scheduled release, with a title, a date and a fixed drop time. By Thursday afternoon, “Bring Your Love” will move from Coachella surprise to streaming single. (billboard.com)
