Regarding her arrival into the band, Paradis noted: "I got talking to their manager at an awards ceremony and later, I had a Zoom call with Warren Ellis and Nick Cave. It all happened super quick. I think Nick was a fan of Line of Duty, the TV show that I score. Sometimes in life you're in the right place at the right time." She contributed whistling to the song "O Wow O Wow (How Wonderful She Is)" on the band's 2024 studio album, Wild God, stating: "I can whistle pretty good and I do bird calls.
