Conan Gray has released a new single about friendship, ‘Holidays’

Conan Gray has released a new single entitled ‘Holidays’.

He initially debuted ‘Holidays’ live during his recent sold-out show at Madison Square Garden while touring in support of his latest album ‘Found Heaven’, which includes the singles ‘Alley Rose’, ‘Fainted Love’, ‘Lonely Dancers’, ‘Killing Me’, ‘Winner’, and ‘Never Ending Song’.

Gray comments on the new single: “‘Holidays’ is a song about friendship. The holidays have always been a bittersweet time for me, for so many reasons. Something about the air, the sappy music, the families, and all the expectations. But most of all, it’s witnessing the passage of time. Catching up with old friends and realising that you might just be ‘catching up’ forever now. That you’ll never be 17 again, living in the same town, waiting for winter break to end.”

He continues, “I wanted to make a song that captured that feeling of coming back home to your hometown after moving away and seeing little bits and pieces slowly change— until one day you look around and your town just isn’t your town anymore. But the one thing that never seems to change is your friendships. I can leave for six months, but right when I land back in Texas, it’s like nobody left. The same food orders, the same dark coffee, and forever the same laughs. That’s what gets me through the holidays every year.”
