Dan + Shay New Album Gets Very Personal
Dan + Shay’s new album, Good Things, just came out on Friday, August 13th.
It features the multi-platinum chart-topping hit, “10,000 Hours,” featuring Justin Bieber, as well as the duo’s latest hit, “Glad You Exist.”
Shay Mooney said that while he and Dan Smyers are in very happy places in their lives, personally, they have experienced both the ups and downs represented on the project and it all led to the “good things” they’re experiencing right now.
“That’s the beauty of being able to step into the storyteller. That’s like step one as an artist. You have to have been able to relate to it at one point in your life, and all these songs, we’ve definitely experienced everything that is in this album and it’s amazing to be able to step into that and, obviously, I think that’s the beauty of why we call the album ‘Good Things’ because I think through even some of the bad stuff that you went through, whether it’s a breakup song or a love song I feel like good can come from the dark places, and that’s just kind of very reminiscent of the album.”
