Ryan Tedder and OneRepublic follow up their recent packed-to-the-rafters London date with a UK tour in April, plus new single ‘Secrets’.
‘Secrets’ is released April 5th through Moseley Music Group/Interscope Records and is taken from OneRepublic’s current album ‘Waking Up’. The track is a spine-tingling rock ballad, layered with strings and anthemic guitars.
OneRepublic, Ryan Tedder, Zach Filkins, Drew Brown, Brent Kutzle and Eddie Fisher recorded this album – a more sweeping, cinematic effort than their debut – in Denver.
The quintet’s platinum-selling debut album ‘Dreaming Out Loud’ was a pure heart-on-your-sleeve confessional, written mostly by Tedder before his massive song writing successes outside of the band (which include Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Leona Lewis and Kelly Clarkson).
‘Waking Up’ explores some of the same experiences as the last album with even more strings and movie-like moments, thanks in part to the use of the same children's choir and orchestra used by Batman and Edward Scissorhands composer Danny Elfman.
