  • Conan Gray Releases New Album “Wishbone”

  • American singer-songwriter Conan Gray released his fourth studio album “Wishbone” along with a new music video for “Caramel” on August 15, 2025 via Republic Records.


    It is his first album in a year since the 2024 album “Found Heaven”.
    The video is the final part of a trilogy, following “This Song” and “Vodka Cranberry”, all directed by Danica Kleinknecht.
    The album comprises 12 tracks, on which, he worked with producer Dan Nigro again, who is produced his debut album “Kid Krow” and second album “Superache”. Additionally, he collaborated with producers Ethan Gruska, Noah Conrad, Elvira Anderfjärd, and Luka Kloser.
    Written by Conan Gray, Dan Nigro, ELVIRA, Luka Kloser and Noah Conrad.
    Conan Gray wrote secretly the songs over the past two years. And then, he started to see himself in full picture with songs.

    Conan Gray said, “Over the past two years, I've been secretly writing songs. After shows in the basements of the venues, in the sheets of my hotel beds, in narrow gaps between tours. I was spending most of my days in bed, writing. It felt like all I really did was write songs in bed. But over time, I began to feel something I'd never felt before. I started to need the music.”

    He continued, “I played the songs to the very first person I'd ever made music with, Daniel Nigro, and I began to record. I didn't know what story I was telling, I was just living in it. Slowly I started to see myself in full picture. The slivers of myself i'd always been, but never faced. The songs I'd always been writing, but never singing. Before I knew it I was surrounded by an album.”

    He added, “I've loved making this album- every small piece. From the songs themselves, to the little drawings and handwritten lyrics in the packaging. Wishbone has been my home for the past two years.”
  • Conan Gray said of the album, “There's no string of words I can tie together to explain how much this album means to me- for those of you who listen, I hope you can hear it in these songs. Wishbone is the album I have dreamed of making my whole life. there's no other way to put it.”

    He continued, “Over the past two years, this album fixed something broken in me. I'd been standing at the edge of myself for years, not knowing that all I had to do was jump into my own life. I'd had some old wounds I'd never let myself heal. some familiar patterns in the people I'd let close to me. some memories I'd tried to too hard forget. And some beautiful pieces of me I hadn't known i was hiding away. It's a strange thing to reveal you to yourself. But somehow wishbone did just that.”

    He added, “So here is Wishbone. It's the album of my life. It's everything I've always wanted to say, but couldn't quite find the words until now. One last thing before I go, I urge you to remember: a wishbone never breaks even. it's up to you to decide what to do with your end of the stick.”


  • Conan Gray explained some tracks for the album.

    “Actor”
    “Actor felt like the perfect way to give people a rundown of exactly how I was feeling from top to bottom of the album. In so many ways, that first verse, I think, kind of covers everything. You know, it's like, 'Okay, well, here's what happened. Here's what broke my heart. Here's how I feel about it.' And I think it's almost like, you know, the first single of the album, “This Song”, is a love song. And in a lot of ways, I kind of gaslight people into thinking it's going to be a love album. So with the album itself, I thought it was important to do the opposite and be like, 'What you're about to listen to right now is this very specific story that happened to me.' I love that one, too. It's one of the ones that I felt was just a cornerstone of the story of the album.”

    “This Song”
    “Shot on film in a small town in my homestate Texas. Starring Corey Fogelmanis, and me. Directed by the incredible Danica Kleinknecht. Song produced by the only Ethan Gruska. Welcome to Wishbone.”

    “Vodka Cranberry”
    ”Wilson and Brando spend the last week of summer together. Shot in my homestate, Texas. featuring Corey Fogelmanis. Directed by Danica Kleinknecht. Song written by me, Produced by Daniel Nigro. Wishbone summer continues.”

    “Sunset Tower”
    ”'Sunset Tower' is a product of [Elvira and Luka Kloser] already knowing all the lore of my life, like not having to catch them up on anything and us just like banging out the song because we knew everything that happened.”
