Aaron Carpenter’s new single, “Next,” was released by Capitol Records. The atmospheric track poignantly captures the pain of falling for someone who still hasn’t gotten over their ex.
Carpenter wrote “Next” with The Roommates (Jon Bellion), who also produced, and Mozella (Miley Cyrus, Jonas Brothers, One Direction). Download / stream “Next” HERE. View the visualizer HERE.
“Next” follows the 20-year-old’s debut single, “Attitude,” which BBC Radio 1 named as one of the April’s Best New Pop tracks, and the follow-up track, “Chase,” which was produced by Pop Wansel (Ariana Grande, Alessia Cara) and Happy Perez (Halsey, Ariana Grande).
Growing up in Louisiana, music was Carpenter’s entire world. Raised on everything from classic country to pop-punk to the Stevie Wonder records his grandmother often spun for him, he took up drumming at age 11, later teaching himself to play piano and guitar. He began posting cover songs in 2015 on Instagram, where he now has nearly four million followers.
Ready to share his own original songs, Carpenter headed to Los Angeles in 2016 and soon landed sessions with A-list songwriters. After spending nearly every day in the studio for an entire year, he signed with Capitol Records in February 2018. He is currently working on his debut album.
