Indie singer Dan Croll took to his social media, teasing the release of a new album. In an Instagram post, Croll uploaded a picture of a folder titled ‘ALBUM 3 MASTERS’ with a caption, “New tunes coming soon”.
Croll’s upcoming third album will mark his return to the music scene in three years. Emerging Adulthood is his second studio album released back in July 2017. The album spawned singles like “One of Us“, “Bad Boy”, “Away from Today“, and “Swim“.
Regarding “Bad Boy”, Croll spoke with Clash about how the song incorporates with the album’s theme of “growing up”:
“It was about this theme of growing up that’s on the album, when you’re on the verge of adulthood. … I think ‘Bad Boy’ is one of those, where it’s that phase of teenage life where either the girls wanted to be going out with a bad boy or the boys wanted to be the bad boy. It seemed to be a common rite of passage for a lot of teenagers. I felt like it was quite funny to look back at that,” said Croll.
The Staffordshire indie heartthrob is, however, better known for his 2014’s debut album Sweet Disarray. The album charted at number 26 on UK Albums Chart, with well-known singles “Compliment Your Soul” and “From Nowhere” featured as soundtracks of FIFA 14 and Grand Theft Auto V.
The now 29-year-old singer from Staffordshire is ready to drop his third LP after moving to America for recording the album. Stay tuned for Croll’s new music this year.
