James Bay has unveiled a brand new single entitled “Up All Night” with The Lumineers and Noah Kahan, to celebrate the announcement of his fourth album, Changes All The Time.
The track, out now via Mercury Records, heralds the arrival of his new LP, which is set to arrive on September 20 and is available for pre-order now.
“‘Up All Night’ is all about navigating the great weight of all the stuff that plays on our minds and keeps us awake at night,” says James. “I have some great history with Noah and The Lumineers. We manifested this collaboration for a while and I feel proud we could make it happen!”
About the collaboration, Noah Kahan commented: “It was an absolute honor to be asked to join this amazing song. James and The Lumineers are some of my biggest inspirations and getting a chance to jam out with them on this one is a total joy!”
Wesley Schultz of The Lumineers added: “James is a powerful singer and musician—we saw his talent each night on tour together last year. Honored he asked us to guest on his song.”
During the chorus on the upbeat track, Bay sings: “Let’s talk about dreams, let’s talk about life, let’s talk about all the things that keep us up all night.” At the same time, Kahan and The Lumineers fuel the celebration with full-bodied backing harmonies.
For this new project, James Bay recruited Gabe Simon to produce the project, alongside co-writers such as Brandon Flowers of The Killers, Holly Humberstone, Dan Wilson of Semisonic, Natalie Hemby of The Highwomen, and Kevin Garrett.
“Making this album felt like my first taste of true musical freedom. With the help of my co-producer, Gabe Simon, I found the courage to make what I wanted to make in ways I never have before. That’s a very hard place to get to, I’m really excited to release this music,” says James.
