Radio 1's New Music Friday for 13 May 2016

Also of note...

OneRepublic - Wherever I Go

Ryan Tedder's written songs for everyone from Adele to Sean Paul but he's finally back with a brand new OneRepublic song.

He'll be in the Radio 1 Breakfast Show studio chatting to Nick Grimshaw and giving a first play of new single 'Wherever I Go' after 8am.

We'll have a chance to hear this new one LIVE in Exeter for this month!

Beyond their own records, Ryan Tedder has written massive hits for umpteen other artists including Beyonce’s ‘Hola’, Leona Lewis’ ‘Bleeding Love’, Ellie Goulding’s ‘Burn’, Taylor Swfits’ ‘Welcome To New York’ and Adele’s ‘Rumour Has It’.

He once told Huw in an interview on Radio 1 that Adele is the most talented songwriter he’s ever worked with!

David Guetta ft Zara Larsson - This One's For You

David Guetta! Zara Larsson! One million crowdsourced cheers! THE WHOLE FLIPPING UEFA EURO 2016 TOURNAMENT!

That's when you'll be hearing this, after its first play on the ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 1 Breakfast Show with Nick Grimshaw. David Guetta phoned in to talk about the pressure of creating an official anthem and being the musical ambassador for Euro 2016.

Wolf Alice - Lisbon

They've recovered from missing band members, horrible elbow infections and are back with new single 'Lisbon.'

Wolf Alice will be on the phone speaking to Clara Amfo about their new single for New Music Friday.

And they, too, will be joining us at in Exeter in a couple of weeks!

Grace - Hell Of A Girl

19-year-old Grace is back with her second single, 'Hell Of A Girl'.

Listen to her January Live Lounge session with Clara Amfo .

Grace is half-British and half-Australian, and her brother is Conrad Sewell, off of Kygo’s hit ‘Firestone’

She’ll be supporting Lukas Graham for his UK dates later this month!

MØ - Final Song

Following on from her guest spot on Major Lazer's massive hit 'Lean On' - the most streamed record of all time - MØ is back with new single 'Final Song.' (We dearly hope it's not.)

This track was produced by MNEK, whose new single will be Annie’s Hottest Record on Friday.

She’s just announced a bunch of UK tour dates for October, and she’ll be at Lovebox, Latitude and Bestival in the meantime

Lukas Graham - Mama Said

Lukas Graham's second single is finally here, following up the Official Charts No.1 '7 Years.'

Referencing 'Hard Knock Life' from the musical 'Annie', can 'Mama Said' live up to Jay-Z's seminal 1998 hit that sampled the same track?

Lukas Graham is actually the name of the BAND, fact fans: it's technically a Danish four-piece, led by Lukas Graham Forchhammer.

Mr Forchhammer grew up in the hippy area of Christiania in Copenhagen, which he says had a massive influence on his music.

He’s already a superstar across Scandinavia, and particularly in his homeland, where both of his previous self-titled albums have been certified platinum 4 times.

He also works as a voice actor in Denmark - he was in Toy Story 2 and 3 there!

Adele - Send My Love (To Your New Lover)

The third single off her massive album '25,' 'Send My Love (To Your New Lover)' is a Taylor-Swift inspired collaboration with Max Martin that takes Adele's sound in a poppier direction.

Adele's in the middle of her 106-date world tour - she’s in Europe currently.

Protoje - Who Knows ft. Chronixx (Shy FX Remix)

You’ll have heard the original version of the track loads on Radio 1 when it was released last year.

Protoje is a Jamaican reggae artist, at the forefront of what has been called the ‘Reggae Revivial’. Shy FX is a legendary British Drum & Bass producer and DJ.

Annie has been playing the unofficial bootleg version of this remix a lot this year.

Charlie Puth ft. Selena Gomez - We Don't Talk Anymore

23-year-old Charlie's first two singles both reached No.1 in the Official Chart- ‘See You Again’ ft. Wiz Khalifa and ‘Marvin Gaye’ ft. Meghan Trainor

He's also written and produced tracks for Jason Derulo and Trey Songz

Selena released her second album ‘Revival’ last year- she’s the most followed person on Instagram!

Both and performed for us during Live Lounge Month in September
