Olly Murs is back with his seventh studio album ‘Marry Me’.
The LP is the musician’s first since signing with EMI records and is preceded by the single Die Of A Broken Heart, out now.
Of the track, he says: “It has that steel drum at the intro, which just gets in your head straight away. It has a very Gotye, Somebody I Used to Know feel to it, with a touch of The Police – and just a coolness to it. That really excited me.”
Written and recorded with David Stewart and Jessica Agombar, the album is Olly’s first to have been entirely conceived by three collaborators and opens up new avenues for the star.
“I’ve never done this before. It felt weird writing with the same people constantly,” he adds. “But I loved the routine, and the consistency. We just kept writing good songs. They had a great vibe and an enthusiasm, and a hunger”
‘Marry Me’ is out December 2 and available to pre-order now.
