James Bay links up with Noah Kahan and The Lumineers comeback single, "Up All Night"
James Bay has released a brand new single, “Up All Night” featuring The Lumineers and Noah Kahan, alongside the announcement of his forthcoming album, Changes All The Time.
““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.”
For his fourth studio album, Bay created eleven tracks under the watch of producer Gabe Simon [Noah Kahan, Koe Wetzel, Maren Morris] 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,” he says.
James Bay will hit the road again in the in February 2025 with dates across seven major cities including Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham, culminating in a London show at Wembley Arena.
