American singer-songwriter Conan Gray released the fifth single called “Alley Rose” from his upcoming third studio album “Found Heaven” on March 8, 2024.
He wrote the song in London about a relationship that was coming to an end.
The track was written by Conan Gray and produced by Greg Kurstin.
Conan Gray told Rolling Stone about the song, “'Alley Rose' is my favorite on Found Heaven. It was the very last song that I wrote on the album. I think the last song on my albums always ends up encapsulating the whole album, which I find to be a huge relief. I went through a breakup last year. It was my first real breakup, and it was really, really eye-opening and interesting and formative and painful and all of these incredible huge emotions that I wasn't expecting. I'd always turned off my emotions when experiencing pain, whereas this, I just let it hit me like a truck. I'd been dumped and I was in London. I was supposed to be there with this person that I was seeing and then I wasn't. And all of a sudden I was like, 'OK, I'm on Abbey Road right now and you're not here with me. Where did you go? Why did things end up so bad?' When I was writing it, I was like, 'OK, I should probably not name the song Abbey Road, the most famous album of all time.' So I decided to come up with a name that kind of sounded like Abbey Road. I wanted you to think of somebody when you listen to the song.”- The new album comprises a 13-track and is set to be released on April 5, 2024.
The album is inspired by his first love, which didn't end well.
Conan Gray said of the album on Zach Sang Show, “This album is very much about embracing all of your emotions, and embracing the fact that like “Yeah, this did end terribly, but it was so worth it, and I'd do it again. There was a massive relief in that I could feel those things and that's also why I named it Found Heaven.” -
Conan Gray embarks on “Found Heaven On Tour”. The tour kicks off at John Cain Arena in Melbourne, AUS on July 11 and will conclude at OVO Arena Wembley in London, UK on Nove 10, 2024.
