James Hersey is proud to present his carefree new single “Closer (feat. Chromeo)”out now via Glassnote Records. James’ writing is as heartfelt as ever, and Chromeo’s production solidifies this upbeat tune into irresistible status.

“This song came from a sort of out-of-body experience I had falling in love for the last time. It was the morning I describe at the beginning of the second verse – waking up at sunrise, watching airplanes overhead, imagining where they might be headed and how great it would be to be on my way to anywhere else. But for the first time in a long time, I realised I didn’t want to go alone. I was tired of constantly saying good-bye to the person I loved, so this song represents the undercurrent of my greatest desire.I wanted the production to carry the message in a positive, upbeat way, and Chromeo seemed like the perfect fit. Their organic, somatic feel was right on point with what I imagined, and the result is a careless disco romance.” says James.

James has amassed hundreds of millions of streams worldwide, led by his self-penned hit single “Miss You” at over 140M, certified Gold in Italy and Canada. Hersey’s 2014 rooftop video of his song “Coming Over” was the launch point of his international career, from which dance heavyweights filous, Kygo and Dillion Francis reworked worldwide smash-hits.

2017’s Pages EP rapidly made him an online sensation, gaining support from the likes of Radio 1’s Annie Mac, Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, as well as Mistajam, Adele Roberts, Cel Spellman, and Maz Tappuni (Communion). In 2019, his exceptional eight-track mini-album Innerverse accrued over 30M streams.

Along the way, Hersey has received accolades from tastemaker publications including The Telegraph, Wonderland, The Line Of Best Fit, CLASH, DIY, Idolator, EARMILK, Red Bull, and tmrw Mag.
