Emerging singer, songwriter and producer Bradley Simpson has released his debut single ‘Cry At The Moon’, via Insanity UK / Columbia Records.
The first taster of the star-in-waiting’s debut album, ‘Cry At The Moon’ sees The Vamps frontman evolve his sound. Simpson wrote the song with Andrew Wells, Anthony Rossomando and Jordan Asher Cruz.
Bradley says “‘Cry At The Moon’ started in LA early on in the writing process for the album with Anthony and Andrew. I knew I wanted to draw on influences I grew up on, and we spent the first two hours of the session listening through bands we loved, lots of Queens of the Stone Age and Raconteurs. As the melody for the chorus came together, we built around that. It was exactly how I wanted to move forward with the sound of the album, and it opened the writing process for me. It became the catalyst for that sound as it went on a bit of a journey.
I met BOOTS a few months after, and we decided to do the entire album together. We went back in and worked on ‘Cry At The Moon’, as it always felt like the song to introduce everyone into the world with.”
The visual for ‘Cry At The Moon’ is directed by WIZ and it escalates in intensity as the song progresses.
