(MR) Three-time GRAMMY Award-nominated and BRIT Award-winning multi-platinum singer, songwriter, and guitarist James Bay expands his acclaimed 2024 album, Changes All The Time, with a special digital deluxe edition that includes four brand new tracks.
The lead single "You and Me Time" unites Bay with the GRAMMY Award-winning icon Sheryl Crow. It marks their first collaboration together. On the track, breezy humming glides over bright acoustic guitar and claps. Uplifted in the swell of an energetic riff and stomping groove, it culminates on a chantable and cheeky chorus as Bay confesses, "All I want is you and me time."
Meanwhile, Crow counters with a flirty verse of her own before leaping into a sky-high harmony on the hook. Then, there's "The Elephant," co-written with Holly Humberstone and featuring breakout Nashville singer-songwriter Maggie Antone. A loose guitar lead gives way to softly strummed chords as Bay's introspective lyrics strike a chord. During the hook, he accepts, "I can run from it, but I can't hide, see the elephant from every side." Lightly plucked acoustic guitar brushes up against his delicate and breathy delivery on "Latchkey Kid." He sets the scene, "Latchkey kid, heart of gold, no one told you that things will turn out alright."
Bay paved the way for Changes All The Time (Deluxe) with "Sunshine In The Room" featuring 7x-GRAMMY Award winner, EMMY Award winner, and Academy Award winner Jon Batiste. Beyond amassing 3.5 million Spotify streams and counting. Stream the album here
