Wishbone is the upcoming fourth studio album by American singer-songwriter Conan Gray. It is scheduled to be released on August 15, 2025, through Republic Records. Having released Found Heaven (2024) only a year prior, Gray spent two years quietly working on Wishbone while on tour for Found Heaven. To support the album, Gray is set to embark on the Wishbone Pajama Show in September and October 2025.
Background and release
In 2024, Conan Gray released his third studio album, Found Heaven, and embarked on his fifth headlining concert tour, Found Heaven On Tour. On May 22, 2025, Gray announced his fourth studio album, Wishbone, revealing that he had been slowly working on new music over the previous two years while on tour. He also discussed the writing process, stating that "before [he] knew it [he] was surrounded by an album" that he had not initially planned to release.[1][2] The lead single of Wishbone, titled "This Song", was released on May 30.[3] Wishbone is the first album that Gray owns the rights to.[4] To support the album, Gray is set to embark on the Wishbone Pajama Show in September and October 2025.[5]
The 12-track record sees him reuniting with producer Dan Nigro, whom he enlisted as executive producer.[6] Additionally, he collaborated with Ethan Gruska, Noah Conrad, Elvira Anderfjärd and Luka Kloser.[1] Gray further revealed that there was no real incentive for him to record; he "just was." Initially, he kept the songs he recorded away from friends or his label but later realized that he "needed" the music.[7] Gray started to see himself "in full picture" with songs he had always seen himself writing before but never did.[8] He referred to the set of tracks as "an egregiously niche soundtrack to our own lives in real time".[9]
