Kodaline have revealed they would love to work with US rapper Jay Z.
The music producer, who is married to Beyonce, also has his own label and the High Hopes singers would love a collaboration.
The Irish band have already written with One Direction’s Harry Styles and Snow Patrol’s Johnny McDaid but now have a dream list of artists they want to get in the studio with.
“There’s loads of people we would love to work with,” lead singer Steve Garrigan told Goss.ie.
“It’s a whole new world for us, because even working with (producer) JackKnife was amazing, we’ve been working with the same people for years.

“We have some realistic ones that we’d love,” Mark Prendergast added. “I’d love to work with James Murphy.”
But drummer Vinny May admitted it’s the rap king he’d love to make a track with. “Jay Z definitely.”
“Daft Punk would be incredible,” Steve added.
The All I Want singers chatted to Goss.ie ahead of their HMV gig in Dublin venue Whelans, promoting the new PureHMV rewards programme, which gives fans access to exclusive gigs.

Hundreds of fans filled the venue, chanting along to their mega hits like High Hopes as well as their new tunes from their latest album.
Just weeks ago the venue became an international name after Ed Sheeran hosted his VH1 Storytellers gig there.
“It’s just an amazing venue,” Steve said. “I spent so many Sunday’s just coming here checking out bands and open mic nights, it’s got a lot of history and it’s an absolute pleasure to play here.
“It’s absolutely incredible that Ed Sheeran could have chosen any venue in the world and he chose Dublin and he chose Dublin so it’s pretty cool,” he added.
