Conor Maynard returns with his brand new single ‘Talking About’ on April 20th through Parlophone Records, a track that is destined to ignite dancefloors on both sides of the Atlantic.
A pumping four-to-the-floor monster, boasting squelchy synths, bouncing bass and a head-spinning chorus, it’s Conor as you’ve never heard him before; drenched with the vibes of Miami’s music scene and delivering a track that nods to the ‘90s era of his birth while smashing straight into the sound of 2015.
Co-written with UK R&B superstar Craig David and produced by Mojam (Emeli Sande, Naughty Boy, Sam Smith), the sizzling house anthem is the first taster of Conor’s forthcoming second album. The video was shot in Miami and sees Conor hitchhiking through various entertaining scenarios, featuring a cameo from Craig David himself.
During his time away, Conor’s been busy in the studio creating a masterful follow-up to his 2012, gold-certified, Number 1 debut album Contrast, which spawned four Top 10 singles in the shape of ‘Can’t Say No’, ‘Vegas Girl’, ‘Turn Around’ and ‘Animal’.
That album also saw Conor breakthrough internationally, becoming one of Britain’s biggest new stars in countries as far afield as the USA, Canada, France, Italy, South Africa and Australia. He followed that run of success with the no.4 smash ‘R U Crazy’ in October 2013.
And now, at the age of 22, Conor is coming back with a dramatic head-turner of a single that sees him take his music in new directions and hints at the diversity and excitement that’s to come on album two – it’s been worth the wait!
