Cian Ducrot – shares latest single ‘Shalalala’ taken from upcoming album

After the phenomenal success of his UK and Ireland #1 debut album ‘Victory’, Cian Ducrot is targeting a return to the top of the charts when his second record ‘Little Dreaming’ is released on July 11th. He continues to ramp up anticipation for the album by sharing the new single ‘Shalalala’. 

‘Shalalala’ sees Cian exploring the turmoil and chaos of the world we live in, but finding a ray of optimism within the communities and personal connections that we share. Its soaring vocals, thunderous percussion and inspiring gospel backing vocals provide an exhilarating, mood-boosting rush which underlines his belief that we need to keep hope in sight even when circumstances are tough.
 
The song was written by Cian with Anton Göransson and Isabella Sjöstrand (RAYE), Bill Maybury (James Bay) and Theo Hutchcraft (Calvin Harris, Måneskin). It was produced by Cian and Anton Göransson, the duo also producing the vocals alongside Isabella Sjöstrand.
 
Cian says, “This song is about hope and solidarity in times where the world feels like it needs it most. It’s about holding our friends, loved ones and strangers close and remembering we are all part of the same world, the same community, the same purpose. Love is the only answer, and beauty is there where you look for it. The probability of being born is estimated to be 1 in 400 trillion and never mind that we are all here at the same time…so let’s come together rand let us sing together SHALALALA”.

‘Little Dreaming’ is available to pre-order HERE. The pick of the physical products is a dazzling tricolour vinyl which is available exclusively from Cian’s official store.
