James Bay<\/strong>‘s fourth album,\u00a0Changes All the Time,<\/em> is out on Oct. 4, and it features Noah Kahan<\/strong> and The Lumineers<\/strong> on the song “Up All Night<\/a>.” Five years ago Noah opened for James, but this summer James found himself opening for Noah \u2014 and\u00a0learning he has fans who discovered him through the “Stick Season” singer.<\/p>\n

“It’s like, ‘Wait, what? This guy was opening for me<\/em> a second ago,’ but how fun,” James tells ABC Audio. “What a cool turn of events to still be connected to and be involved in, and [to] have played a part in and sort of continue to, I guess. ‘Cause if we’re sharing fans, then, wow, what a cool thing that is as well.”<\/p>\n

Faced with situations like that, it’s no wonder James titled the album Changes All The Tim<\/em>e.<\/p>\n

“I wanted to say something true and connecting,” he says. “Everything changes all the time. You can stay present for that, but you can’t necessarily get in the way of it.”<\/p>\n

On this album, James also got to co-write with\u00a0The Killers<\/strong>‘ Brandon Flowers<\/strong>, a hero of his. James recalls Brandon said of the song they did together<\/a>, “Listen to that. Isn’t that good? … it sounds like The Beatles<\/strong> or something.”<\/p>\n

“I’m like, ‘Brandon Flowers, absolute hero, listening to a thing that I’ve<\/em> come up with, that he’s writing with<\/em> me, saying it reminds him of The Beatles<\/em>? That was a pinch-myself moment.”<\/p>\n

James is currently planning a U.S. tour for 2025, though he’d also like to do a solo acoustic thing at some point.<\/p>\n

“I’ll bring the band to America. No question. We’ll make a lot of noise,” he says. “But I would hope … that I can get out there and just sort of share this music in that really intimate way, as well.”<\/p>\n
