Conan Gray Announces New Album ‘Wishbone'
Conan Gray surprised fans this morning by announcing that his fourth album, Wishbone, will be released on August 15th. The lead single, 'This Song,' is set to drop next week. Gray shared the news in a lengthy post, revealing that he had been slowly writing new music on his own, late after shows and between tours over the past two years. 'I'd come back home and write all the things I felt nobody wanted to hear,' he explained, 'maybe even the things i didn't want people to hear.'

'But over time, I began to feel something I'd never felt before,' he wrote. 'I started to need the music. I listened in airports, in long cab trips, blaring in the shower. In heartbreak, then in joy. I started to play it for my friends, and they started to need it too. In car ride requests with the windows down, in a split pair of wired headphones on the subway home. It became an egregiously niche soundtrack to our own lives in real time, singing just for us.' After playing the songs for frequent collaborator Daniel Nigro, Gray began to record the album. 'It felt like the music was reminding me who I am, at an experimental time in my twenties where 'who I am' had no definition at all,' he continued. 'My driftwood childhood in texas. My lucid summers in London. My blue striped bed sheets in my college apartment.' Gray added that every song was written by himself, in his pajamas, in his bed. Nigro, along with Ethan Gruska, Noah Conrad, Elvira Anderfjärd, and Luka Kloser, produced the album. The fantastical album cover depicts Gray dressed like a sailor floating on a pillow and holding a large wishbone of the album's namesake. 'Here's so much left to say, but I'll say it in the music,' he wrote. In a postscript to the message, he added that 'a wishbone never breaks even.' Gray released his third LP Found Heaven last April. He subsequently went on tour that summer in support of the album. He'll be playing Governors Ball in New York this June.

The show is slated to premiere on August 15 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on USA. Episodes will be available to stream on Peacock one week after airing on USA. 'The series follows Rudy Baylor, who is fresh out of law school, goes head-to-head with courtroom lion Leo Drummond as well as his law school girlfriend, Sarah.

Because of this, he finds himself working at an unconventional law firm that represents normal people against powerful figures. In the 1997 adaptation, the main character was portrayed by Oscar winner Matt Damon. The Rainmaker is written and executive produced by showrunner Michael Seitzman, based on the best-selling novel by John Grisham. The cast also includes John Slattery, P.J. Byrne, Dan Fogler, Wade Briggs, and Robyn Cara. It is executive produced by Michael Seitzman, Jason Richman, John Grisham, David Gernert, and Jason Blum. 'The Rainmaker began as John Grisham's fastest-selling novel, then became a feature film, and now, it's a TV series,' Seitzman said in a statement. 'What is it about this story that keeps drawing people in? Maybe it's the David-and-Goliath legal thriller, the dangerous romance or the coming-of-age story. For me, above all, it's the characters. They jumped off the page in John's book and were a joy to expand upon in our show. Not to mention, Milo Callaghan, who plays Rudy Baylor, is your next crush.'
