‘We Were Never Really Friends’ marks Bruno’s first release since his album To Let a Good Thing Die in 2020. The track opens as a gentle piano ballad, nothing more than his plaintive vocals and the instrument—and then the drums come in and the song explodes open as he sings of the heartfelt blurring of friendship and romance and its inevitable messy aftermath. It’s studded with eye-catching details and frank emotions, like a crashed Mercedes and an unreturned plea to come home.
“‘We Were Never Really Friends’ paints a picture of the blurry line between friends and lovers,” Bruno explains. “Ostensibly lamenting the loss of a good friend, until the ultimate realization arrives that it was always something more.”
The Kassy Mahea-directed music video for ‘We Were Never Really Friends’ is a dreamlike flashback through the eyes of Bruno. Featuring expansive, coastal Californian landscapes, the cinematic visuals follow the course of a relationship – fraught with overwhelming infatuation followed by an equally spectacular downfall, ending with a vintage Mercedes in flames.

Marking a triumphant return to the stage after his 2020 tour was cancelled due to COVID, Bruno will kick off an expansive headlining tour this August across Asia with the promise of heading to Australian shores in the near future. Tickets go on sale on May 12th and may be purchased HERE.
The antihero of music stardom, Bruno has been completely uncompromising in his craft, creating unrivalled lyrical landscapes that don’t conform to the musical status quo of today, but still deeply resonate with fans, as evidenced by his billion-stream career, propelled by viral hits ‘Nothing’ and ‘Easily’.
Bruno splices classic singer-songwriter confessionals with sleek modern electronic production, girding the entire enterprise with hints of soul. Trained as a classical guitarist, Bruno has earned support from the likes of Sam Smith, Billie Eilish, Shawn Mendes, Charlie Puth, Lianne La Havas, Hailey Bieber, and Kourtney Kardashian, to name a few.
His dedication to sincerity and immediacy in his craft was solidified via his 2017 debut record A Song For Every Moon. Its 2020 follow-up, To Let a Good Thing Die was similarly far reaching, a beautifully crafted tapestry of stories of human relationships, love and heartbreak, and existential musings; one single, ‘The Most Beautiful Thing’, emerged from a special co-writing session with producer and pop luminary FINNEAS. Across the two albums, Bruno has amassed over 1.5 billion collective streams to date.
Prior to the pandemic, he toured extensively, selling over 50,000 headline tickets, made his TV debut on the Late Late Show with James Corden, his festival debut at Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival, and opened for Sam Smith’s European arena tour.
Now in 2023, as he divides his time between London and Los Angeles, he prepares for his first release in three years—his most ambitious album yet.
