Dan + Shay Return With New Album ‘Bigger Houses’ Set For Fall

July 14, 2023/by Lorie Hollabaugh

Dan + Shay are gearing up for a new era with their upcoming album, Bigger Houses. The project was co-produced by the duo’s Dan Smyers and will release Sept. 15 via Warner Music Nashville.

The leadoff single “Save Me The Trouble” is the first offering from the new project, which was created following a turbulent few years that was kept private until the recent surprise release of The Drive, a revelatory short film in which Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney offer up a soul-baring recap of the struggles and triumphs they faced privately behind closed doors.

“Save Me The Trouble” showcases a more live, stripped-down feel for the duo. “I don’t think I’ve ever been prouder of a song that I am this one,” says Smyers. “We wanted to have something that was a real moment, and when we started writing this, it felt like it could be something big. I wanted every section to build, and even in the second chorus, when you’re like, ‘Okay, there’s no way it could possibly get any crazier,’ then Shay takes off even further.”

The duo also released two more new songs from Bigger Houses, “Heartbreak On The Map” and title track “Bigger Houses”—along with videos for all three.

“Some of our records have been more pop- or hip-hop/R&B-infused,” Smyers shares, “But on this record, I wanted to make tracks that we could hop up at any bar anywhere with our live band and play the songs as they were recorded. Ultimately, this music, this whole album, is something that I’ll be able to look back on in a decade or two and be really proud of the way it turned out.”

Dan + Shay will be sharing a couple of the new tracks live next Friday (July 21) as part of this summer’s Citi Concert Series on Today. They were also recently announced as coaches for season 25 of NBC’s The Voice, and will join Reba McEntire, John Legend and Chance the Rapper in Spring 2024 as the first-ever coaching duo in the show’s history.

In the 10 years since they formed, Dan + Shay have garnered more than 11 billion career streams globally, multiple international No. 1s, and 49 Platinum and Gold certifications in the U.S. alone.
