Yesterday, Conan announced The Wishbone Pajama Show to his 7.4 million Instagram followers (see here), where he encouraged fans to dress up, saying “pack your sailor caps and pajama pants… pajamas encouraged but not required.”
“This Song”, written by Conan Gray and produced by Ethan Gruska (Phoebe Bridgers) marks a new era and marked evolution for the singer-songwriter who has been touted as one of the most impactful songwriters of his generation. The official music video is directed by Danica Kleinknecht (Mk.Gee) and co-stars Corey Fogelmanis. Filmed in Texas, the single’s accompanying visual is a heartbreakingly beautiful and intimate depiction of unspoken desire.
Much like his first two albums, Conan wrote all the songs on the album from his bedroom and has reunited with Grammy Award winning longtime collaborator Dan Nigro, who executive produced Wishbone. As a longtime collaborator, Dan Nigro has worked with Conan since 2018 including his multi-platinum selling hits “Heather” and “Maniac”. In addition, Conan worked with Ethan Gruska, Noah Conrad, Luka Kloser and Elvira as producers on Wishbone.
On Wishbone, Conan Gray returns to his singer-songwriter roots after falling in love for the first time, showcasing his creative talents more than ever before. Full Wishbone track listing below.

About Conan Gray
Nobody has tapped into the thoughts and feelings of this era quite like Conan Gray has. The Texas native has transformed into theGen Z singer-songwriter by never losing sight of where he came from, still writing songs in his bedroom, hand-drawing his art, and designing a world without comparison. 2020 saw him leave an indelible imprint on popular culture with his full-length debut LP, Kid Krow. Produced by longtime collaborator and GRAMMY® Award winner Dan Nigro, it bowed at #5 on the Billboard 200, went Platinum, and yielded a series of signature smashes, including the 4x-Platinum “Heather,” 3x-Platinum “Maniac,” and Gold-Certified “Comfort Crowd,” “The Story,” “Wish You Were Sober,” and “The Cut That Always Bleeds.” Among these staples, he entered rarified air with “Heather,” becoming “one of a handful of songs with 2 billion streams penned by one writer (Conan).” With 12 billion total streams to date, Conan returned to the top of the charts with Superache [2022] and Found Heaven [2024]. Moreover, he has incited the applause of The New York Times, Rolling Stone, Vogue, GQ, V Man, PAPER, The FADER, Billboard, and NPR in addition to performing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Late Night with Seth Meyers, TODAY, and more. He has taken flight as an arena headliner, selling out hallowed venues such as Madison Square Garden. A fixture at events like the Met Gala, Conan’s just as uncompromisingly influential as a style icon, embracing a fashion-forward aesthetic like no other. Beyond thriving as a songwriter, he serves as the core creative director, shaping every layer of his vision down to creating cover art and co-directing music videos. He turns the page on his next chapter in 2025 with his fourth full-length album, Wishbone [Republic Records], beginning with the single “This Song.”
About hemlocke springs
After North-Carolina artist hemlocke springs (aka Isimeme “Naomi” Udu) posted a TikTok that featured her dancing with awkward enthusiasm to her soon-to-be hit “Girlfriend,” her profile rapidly skyrocketed. Her charming eccentricity and daydreamer persona positioned her as relatable enough for the average listener to buy into, but still strangely iconoclastic enough to be more than just another bedroom TikTok singer. She went on to release a slew of strong singles that evoked a wide range of genres: 2010s indie pop, the cyber-inflected funk of the 1980s Depeche Mode, the bouncing rhythms of Timbaland and The Neptunes, with her beloved Kate Bush at the helm as a huge musical inspiration. All of this culminated in a well-received EP ‘going … going … GONE!’ and a series of memorable music videos that developed springs’s aesthetic of lovably twee chaos, establishing fans among the likes of Chappell Roan, Doja Cat (who she supported on DC’s headline tour summer 24), Grimes, and Steve Lacy. hemlocke is currently in the studio working on her debut LP.
