Anderson East's 'All On My Mind' #1 at Triple A Radio
By: Caryn Robbins Dec. 11, 2017
Anderson East's "All On My Mind" is #1 this week at Triple A radio (both BDS and mediabase). Written by Ed Sheeran, Johnny McDaid, Anderson East and Aaron Raitiere, "All On My Mind" is East's first single to reach #1 and was produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Dave Cobb and Elektra Records President Gregg Nadel. Watch East perform the song on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" and view the official music videoHERE.
"All On My Mind" is the first single from East's highly anticipated new album, Encore, which will be released January 12 on Low Country Sound/Elektra Records and is now available for pre-order.
Each digital album pre-order comes with an immediate download of the single as well as the album track, "King For A Day," which was written by East along with Chris Stapletonand Morgane Stapleton. Of the song, NPR Music's Ann Powers praises, "...exemplifies what's most exciting about Encore. East carefully lays down his vocal lines, going from tender to urgent, as the horns and Chris Stapleton's guitar form a double helix around them. The particular rhythms of Southern soul-aggression tempered by a commitment to staying in the pocket-are ideally realized, conveying the song's message that love is always worth it, no matter how long it lasts." Watch the song's official music video HERE.
In celebration of the new album, East will embark on his largest headline tour to date, "Encore World Tour 2018." The extensive run will span throughout next year including two sold out shows at Nashville's 3rd & Lindsley as well as stops at NYC's Bowery Ballroom (sold out) and Music Hall of Williamsburg, Atlanta's Terminal West, L.A.'s El Rey Theatre, San Francisco's The Fillmore and D.C.'s 9:30 Club among many others. Tickets are now on-sale. See below for complete details.
Encore was produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Dave Cobb and recorded at Nashville's historic RCA Studio along with additional production at House of Blues and Farmland Studio. The album features eleven songs, including "All On My Mind," "King For A Day," "Girlfriend" (written by East, Cobb, Raitiere and Tim Bergling) as well as renditions of songs by Ted Hawkins and Willie Nelson.
The release of Encore culminates a breakout series of years for East following his widely praised debut album, Delilah, which NPR Music called "an eclectic, fully formed debut..." Additional critical praise included The Wall Street Journal who described, "...highlighted by Mr. East's raw and raspy vocals and a backing band that channels the urgent rhythms and gospel-flavored sounds of '60s R&B and Southern soul music," while American Songwriterasserted, "New artist debuts don't come with much more industry buzz than the first release from singer/songwriter Anderson East...For better or worse, that sets expectations higher than those of most new artists. Thankfully, East meets them in 10 tracks and 33 minutes."
In addition to "Ellen" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live!," East has previously performed on "Late Night with Seth Meyers," "CBS This Morning Saturday" and Daryl Hall's "Live from Daryl's House" and has lent his talents to several notable projects. He's been featured on Dave Cobb's Southern Family compilation, contributed a song to Brandi Carlile's Cover Stories LP and crafted the original song "What Would It Take" for the Fifty Shades Darkersoundtrack.
