Conor Maynard has announced that he will release his first album of original songs for more than a decade in June. Titled ‘+11 Hours’, the record is the follow-up to his 2012 debut ‘Contrast’.

Out now is new single ‘Storage’, of which he says: “’Storage’ is about having the capacity to contain various, irrelevant but ultimately incredible, personal and beautiful memories when you’re in a relationship”.

“Once that ends, your brain holds all of the information and fixates on those tiny little things that didn’t really make a difference at the time, but now all they do is consume your so-called ‘storage’ of your brain”, he goes on. “Just as an iPhone would ‘run out of storage’ when keeping meaningless little pictures over the years, the concept is the same for one’s brain”.

Set for release on 9 Jun, the album is, he says, inspired by a difficult break up he went though last year with a woman from Sydney in Australia, where the time difference is plus eleven hours from the UK.
