Conor Maynard’s ‘Turn Around’ feat. Ne-Yo
November 14, 2012 — New York, NY — Following his debut national TV performance on The Today Show (here: http://video.today.msnbc.msn.com/today/49432114#49432114), British pop sensation Conor Maynard has released his second U.S. single, “Turn Around” ft. Ne-Yo and the digital “Turn Around” EP that is currently available. The single is a collaboration between Maynard and mentor, Ne-Yo. Ne-Yo has praised the young star’s voice ever since viewing the cover of “Beautiful People” on Maynard’s YouTube channel. Ne-Yo quoted “Conor is amazing. He has that talent…His tone is insane. It’s really, really rare that I come across a person that has a tone I wish I had. He has this soft tone that is incredible.” The two performed the single together at the 2012 Teen Awards in London.
Maynard will make several upcoming TV appearances, including The Late Show with David Letterman on Jan 7th and Good Morning America on Jan 8th. He recently performed for VH1’s Big Morning Buzz and was interviewed on Fuse’s Top 20 Countdown. Right now Conor’s U.S. fans (a.k.a. “Mayniacs”) can help plan a tour for Conor by going to http://mayniacmap.com <http://mayniacmap.com> and signing in with their social networks. The more fans tweet, share, watch, comment and like Conor-related content, the more points they earn for their city. Currently fans have the opportunity to increase the points in their hometown by pre-ordering the Contrast album fan-bundles on Conor’s webstore (www.merchdirect.com/conormaynard). Fans should get in their city selections now as the map will end on November 25. The top 5 cities will get a free performance this winter.
The new single and TV appearances are sure to increase buzz and anticipation for the U.S. release of Maynard’s album, Contrast, which debuted on the UK Album chart at No. 1 in August. Due for release by Capitol Records on January 8th, 2013, Contrast is a genre-defying blend of innovative R&B, dramatic hip-hop soundscapes, and stadium-scaling pop anthems that manage to be both incredibly cool and commercially appealing.
